The Gettysburg Address is a speech by U.S. President Abraham Lincoln, one of the best-known in American history.
Abraham Lincoln called what happened in Gettysburg âa new birth of freedom,â a phrase that chiseled its way into our national civic poetry and the wall of his memorial. The battle was also an epic slaughter, the bloodiest chapter in a fratricidal war.
