The Wheatfield showing
Round Tops in distance, Gettysburg, PA
At the
Wheat Field there occured what is called the "Whirlpool of the Battle"
The scene as the men advanced and then retired, fought in a circle and
in and about each other in deadly confusion, back and forth for seven times
makes the title no misnomer. It is truly said of the Wheat Field that upon
no other place of equal extent on the American Continent were so many human
lives lost and so much human blood shed. |
