About this listen
July, 1863. The small Pennsylvania town of Gettysburg is torn apart when two armies collide. Over the next three days, more than 50,000 men will become casualties, while the residents of Gettysburg take shelter in their cellars.
On the southern edge of town, a brick house, owned by one Harvey Sweney, is taken over by Confederate skirmishers. From upstairs in the attic, snipers pour a withering hail of fire down on the Union position at Cemetery Hill. The Union soldiers fight back, peppering the south wall of the Sweney House with hundreds of bullet holes.
The numbers of dead begin to mount on both sides, until General Lee finally withdraws his forces. Now, more than 150 years later, the Sweney House has become the Farnsworth House Inn. Echoes of those bloody days still linger. Phantom boots thud across the attic floor. Apparitions and shadow figures haunt the guest rooms and prowl the hallways.
Join TV's Richard Estep (Haunted Case Files, Haunted Hospitals, Paranormal 911) as he learns why the Farnsworth House is rightly regarded as one of Gettysburg's most haunted places.

Those supplies sit in the hold of Royal Navy ships, which stand ready to sail up the Delaware River and deliver them to the hungry redcoats. Just one thing stands in their way: Fort Mifflin.

Sometimes, those spirits are friendly. But not always...

Witness to Gettysburg brings the bloodiest, most crucial battle of the Civil War to life through on-the-spot eyewitness accounts. From the courageous fighting men and officers to the civilians watching as the conflict raged through their towns, from the reporters riding with the regiments to the children excited or terrified by the titanic drama unfolding before them, each account stems from personal experience and blends with the whole to create a startlingly vivid tapestry of war. In their own words, and through the eyes of their closest aides, such commanders as Robert E. Lee, Jeb Stuart, and George Meade.

Richard Estep has a knack for weaving in enough of both the paranormal and historical accounts to make a riveting book. He makes the characters come alive so to speak.

There is nothing new or interesting in this story, and the audio performance is awful. Who the heck mispronounces Appomattox and Potomac in a work about the Civil War?
