The Gettysburg Address: A Graphic Adaptation is a full-color illustrated look at Abraham Lincoln’s most famous speech; the bloody battle of the Civil War that prompted it; and how they led to a defining point in the history of America. Most of us can recall “Four score and seven years ago;†but much of what we know about Abraham Lincoln’s oration has been forgotten after high school. Using Lincoln’s words as a keystone; and drawing from first-person accounts; The Gettysburg Address shows us the events through the eyes of those who lived through the events of the War; from soldiers to slaves. Writer Jonathan Hennessey and illustrator Aaron McConnell illuminate history with vibrant; detailed graphics and captions that deliver a fresh understanding of this vital speech.
