Big Deal at Gettysburg: The Value of Historical Places

Gettysburg Park Ranger to Appear in Classrooms via Broadcast

Viewers of this year’s broadcast will follow business executive Elizabeth Hoover’s journey (along with her teenage son) as she tries to secure key Gettysburg properties for her firm. But will she leave Gettysburg understanding that historic value sometimes trumps property value? Elizabeth’s journey will take her to the historic Spangler Farm, the Gettysburg Railroad Station, the David Wills House and the Soldiers’ National Cemetery as she rediscovers a battle, and a speech (“The Gettysburg Address”) that shaped a nation. The broadcast is designed to be shown in three segments (approximately 20 minutes each) with online discussion questions and activities for each segment (available at www.gettysburgfoundation.org). The broadcast and accompanying lessons were designed in accordance with the National Council for Social Studies curriculum standards and themes.
