History, Literature, And Creating A Truly Memorable Family Vacation

Here is a great idea for family vacation that combines literature, history and camping.

Have you always wanted to visit Gettysburg?

Start by having your family read the novel The Killer Angels, the book that won the 1975 Pulitzer Prize. Written by Michael Shaara, this book takes you in the moment-by-moment events in the three days of battle in Pennsylvania from the perspectives of several different soldiers who were there, both North and South.

Read the book and then go visit the battlefield on a gettysburg camping vacation.

Taking this advice, as a family, you are reading one of the great pieces of 20th century literature, exploring history by actually being there, and then having some great family togetherness while saving money by taking advantage of pa rv camping and staying at one of the great pennsylvania RV Parks.

Reading the book will give your visit to Gettysburg added depth, background -- and enjoyment.
