EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print takes us back to the historic site of Devils Den in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, during the early 1900s. The image showcases a cluster of massive boulders perched on a hill, which served as a crucial vantage point for Union sharpshooters during the Battle of Gettysburg on July 2,1863. The photograph captures the rugged beauty and solemnity of this significant location where Union soldiers bravely defended their position against Confederate artillery. These rocks provided essential cover for Union troops as they strategically fired upon their adversaries from above. Preserved within the pages of "Scenic Marvels of the New World" edited by Professor George R.

Today, Devils Den stands as both a tourist attraction and hallowed ground—a place where visitors can pay homage to those who fought valiantly for their beliefs. This powerful photograph is an enduring testament to our country's history—a visual representation that allows us to connect with our past while appreciating how far we have come since those
