Anniversary of the Gettysburg Address/Dedication Day in G-burg
By far my favorite reciter of the Gettysburg Address is G-burg resident and Lincoln portrayer Jim Getty because of his conversational style. Others too often are overly dramatic, but his interpretations have never bored me during Memorial Day or Dedication Day/Remembrance Day ceremonies. This page includes audio of readings by him and others: Johnny Cash (accompanied by guitar), Jeff Daniels, Colin Powell, Sam Waterston, and W. F. Hooley (in a scratchy 1898 recording): http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/gettysburgaddress.htm

[Remembrance Day is a Saturday near November 19 during which Civil War re-enactors march down Baltimore Street to the National Battlefield Park. Re-enactors representing both sides usually go to the low stone wall/fence in the Pickett's Charge area to shake hands, as did Civil War veterans at re-unions.]
