The Gettysburg Adress Has Been Included, Of Late, In Several Anthologies Of Poetry.

The Men Who Fought For Self-determination At Gettysburg Were Not The Federals But The Confederates.

All American Wars (except The Civil War) Have Been Fought With The Odds Overwhelmingly In Favor Of The Americans. In The History Of Armed Combat Such Affairs As The Mexican And Spanish-american Wars Must Be Ranked, Not As Wars At All, But As Organized Assassinations.
