Reviews & Critiques 

"I was introduced to this APP by a historian who used it for a stunning discussion of the battle! This is the best tool I've even seen to assist in visualizing the progression of this complex engagement."

"CivilWarAnimatedBattles.com is a great example of how historical research can be augmented by modern technology. It allows users to have an innovative view of the battle with an astonishing level of detail."

"I have studied Gettysburg for years and read all the books. This APP closed gaps for me that I have had for years!"

"This is without a doubt a must have for any serious Gettysburg enthusiast. Very well done and a perfect companion for reading and studying Gettysburg battlefield."

Walter G. - Montgomery AL

"I went to Gettysburg for the first time in 1970 at 8 years old and was hooked. I live in Lancaster County, PA for the last 7 years and visit Gettysburg at least three time a year. Your amazing map has helped me to understand more clearly what happened and where it happened. Now before I take a trip, I can review the map to understand the specific points of interest that I may have for that visit. I am so looking forward to the next release of Day One. That day has me most confused, but now I know that with your incredible map, it will answer a lot of questions. Incredible work."

Paul A. - Lancaster County PA

"Using this APP, I have now, for the first time,  been able to put unit movement and strength together in a way that really enhances my understanding of the narratives I have been reading on Day 2 of Gettysburg.  This software isn't a game, it's a serious tool for understanding how attacker and defender moved from minute to minute and hour to hour!"

"Just got into this. It's a keeper! Really good work. Hope you can do many more of these, and not just the Civil War period."

"This Gettysburg animated map is a terrific resource for Civil War buffs. I have never seen anything like it. All the finer details of the battle's second day are included. You can zoom in or out to different altitude views, turn landmarks on and off, hover your mouse over specific units to see details such as Order Of Battle, manpower, casualties, current state (line formation, skirmish order, chaotic retreat). How the animation overlays onto a current satellite image makes it easy to match up places on the battlefield you know (or are currently at) to key moments in the battle. One thing that stood out to me is how all the skirmishers are shown, which fills in some gaps from looking at traditional battle maps. All-in-all, this is worth every penny if you are a Civil War enthusiast. I look forward to the first and third days being available."

Mike M. - West Chester PA

"This is a very useful and educational product. It helps give a visual knowledge of the movements of both armies on the field."

"I have studied the Battle of Gettysburg for over 10 years. I am so excited a program like this was made. It is amazing!"
