Reviews of Copse of Trees
"Puts very much in perspective. Difficult to fully understand the nation's times and extent to which we were divided."
"This place was great! We had a great "tour guide" that was more a storyteller than a tour guide. She told the history by telling a story. She was dressed in clothing of the period and we got to visit the garret (attic) where a CSI investigation showed that a confederate soldier was killed there. Also visited the basement where the man of the house had a saloon set up. Totally fun visit and a gift shop at the end...what more could you ask for?!!!"
"Gettysburg holds so much history, as well as energy. The Copse of Trees was a beautiful backdrop for Chris the Civil War reenactor and a stunning view as the sky lit up with vivid colors, casting the Copse of Trees in shadow. My sons loved this because they could view the canon balls set up, as though they were going to be used in the cannons presently. The Trees accent the monument beautifully."
"When you stand near the stone wall, at the spot where General Armistead, CSA, a part of Pickett's Charge, was cut down by sharpshooters, it is hard to describe. This was the only point in the northern line crossed by the South that day. Walking the line held by Pennsylvania, Minnesota, Indiana, Maine and New York troops, it is one of the most sobering things you will do. Most historians say our Union was saved during those three days from July 1 to July 3, 1863, although the war lasted two more years."
"I was so taken by this place, by the seemingly impossible nature of the task the CSA was trying to accomplish with Pickett's Charge. I went to this spot several times over my few days here. One final one to catch the sunset over something so serene."
