Draft of Gettysburg Address |
||||||
 |
||||||
|
||||||
| This draft of United States president Abraham Lincoln’s (1860-1865) Gettysburg Address is a little less than a page and a half. Lincoln delivered the speech in 1863 at the site of a Union victory in the Civil War (1861-1865). The speech went almost unnoticed at the time, but it has come to be regarded as one of the most moving pieces of oratory in American history. | ||||||
