On the 150th anniversary of the Gettysburg Address, we asked UC Santa Barbara students to recite one of the most famous speeches ever delivered by an American president. It was delivered by Lincoln during the Civil War, on Nov. 19, 1863. For a video of John Majewski, professor of history at UCSB, discussing the Gettysburg Address, go to https://vimeo.com/79832141
