The Association of Licensed Battlefield Guides, Inc. proudly announces its annual autumn seminar. The weekend includes special in-depth walking tours with experienced battlefield guides, Friday night reception, two breakfasts and one lunch, Saturday night banquet, maps and materials, and more. Robert E. Lee’s army entered the Gettysburg Campaign with high hopes and the expectation of victory. Within three days, that army went from dramatic success to devastating defeat. Many of the reasons for the Confederate failure may be found in the decisions made by its senior officers, some of whom had performed brilliantly in the past; several have been the subject of controversy for nearly 150 years. This weekend seminar addresses the conduct of a number of those officers and their soldiers on July 1-3, 1863, from the same perspective they had – on the battlefield.
