Get ready to feel goose-bumps, as you read about the most haunted city in America. Battles occurred in the Gettysburg area about 147 years ago, and it's said that people involved in those battles remain today in the form of spirits.

I don't normally like 'history' books, but this book actually taught me history in a really fun way. It would tell all about a historic event, such as a three day battle in 1863 which left 102 dead. This particular short story told about how a pregnant woman took months to bury all of those bodies by herself. Then, the story would talk about the sightings today, of the woman still walking the cemetery. Tami Rasel, the master ghost story teller, goes about telling all of the tales in this book in such a way to leave her readers in amazement.

Anyone who loves both history and tales of supernatural will enjoy reading this book.

I especially like the fact that this book is written as a true non-fiction story. The book is basically a collection of real events, experienced by visitors and residents of this historical town.

This book made me want to visit the city of Gettysburg. I'll have to get there someday!

The author of this book runs a Ghost Tour business in Gettysburg with her husband. It's called, "Civil War Hauntings Candlelight Ghost Walk."

Tami Rasel is a professional Ghost storyteller, who grew up in a very old haunted house. She's been involved with 'ghosts' for as long as she can remember.

This book is a great read for those of us on the go. Most of the stories are only about three pages long. It's very easy to enjoy a story, and then put the book down until later.
