Well I think you may have a thread on this but oh well... This is kinda a two parter anyway. I watched the movie and from a totally uninformed standpoint (From re-enacting I know the tactics, weapons, and way of life... not particulars of the battles) I would say it paints a very good picture of what occured on each day of Gettysburg though obviously there are parts of the battle left out. It was slow at times but I'd say I can stand it a bit more than Gods and Generals at least the "slow" parts all have much meaning. The battle scenes (especially "Pickett's Charge") make me want to be there this summer for the National Event of Gettysburg... to see that many men ready to do battle would be the rush of a lifetime.
2nd. Is there anywhere where I can get maps of individual days of the battles that have the positions/units labelled and provide sort of a small synopsis of the batlle(s) occuring.
