This week I am happy to welcome Matt Callery to the show. Matt has been a part of the Gettysburg tour and interpretation scene for some time, and he is now the co-host (along with Peter Bonfanti) of the Addressing Gettysburg Podcast…due to drop toward the end of May 2019.

Matt and I talk about all sorts of Gettysburg stuff…

  • Why the battle looms so large in the American historical consciousness

  • What we can learn from a guided tour

  • Why there is so much Confederateness there

  • Battlefield interpretation

  • The old Visitor Center and Cyclorama building

  • What do we do with the all the Rebel monuments (a favorite topic of mine).

We also hit on some good books: Coddington’s Gettysburg Campaign and the works of John Bachelder

So have a listen…enjoy!! And please feel free to add to the conversation in the comments below.
