  The one thing that is almost overlooked was the economic consequences of freeing the slaves. Lincoln put the value of slaves at 800 million in 1856, in 1860 the total federal budget was 80 million.

  Matt's lectures and battlefield tour speaking programs just rock. He makes learning historical facts about Gettysburg and the civil war in general fun, by NOT boring visitors or "YouTube" viewers to tears.

  I’ve listened to this lecture several times. It’s well written and delivered with information and a touch of humor. Ranger Atkinson is unique. All the NPR rangers are excellent in their presentations. Their knowledge makes both battlefield tours it lectures worthwhile.
