From July 1 through the 3rd, 1863, the largest battle in the history of the Western Hemisphere took place in southern Pennsylvania. 

After the battle, tens of thousands of dead were laid to rest, and an official national cemetery was established to honor the war dead. 

The cemetery was consecrated on November 19, 1963. During the ceremony, a short speech was given by the President of the United States, Abraham Lincoln. That short speech has become the most famous speech in American history.

Displacement, identity and the aftermath of warfare are themes running through today's episode on 'The Haunting of Hajji Hotak.' Author Jamil Jan Kochai talks with Ari Shapiro about why he used elements of science fiction like video games and magical realism to tell a largely autobiographical story of his family's life in Afghanistan before and after the Soviet invasion.

If you go through the history of ancient Rome, you will find the stories of many important men.

Learn more about the most powerful woman in Roman history, and determine if she was one of history’s most shrewd Machivelliean characters or if she was just misunderstood on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

The setting for today's book could be an "alternate version of right now," according to author Davey Davis. He spoke with Anna Sale in an interview for It's Been a Minute about how 'X' looks into a dystopian reality where sex workers, immigrants and trans people are exported out of the U.S. And the book tells the story of what life is like for those in hiding.

John J. Miller is joined by Thomas S. Kidd to discuss his new book, 'Thomas Jefferson: A Biography of Flesh and Spirit.'

Once humans managed to put artificial satellites into orbit, the next question was, “what can we do with this?”

One of the first applications of satellites, and still one of the biggest uses still today, has been for communications. 

Using satellites for communications requires cutting-edge technologies in space flight, solar power, radio engineering, and computers. 

Learn more about satellite communications, its history, and how it works, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Today's book evaluates the price of assimilation when representation, identity and belonging are erased. In Why Didn't You Tell Me?, author Carmen Rita Wong recounts how she discovered her origin story was all but true. She talks with Ailsa Chang about navigating her life after that discovery – and the impact of colonialism.

Located near the city of Masvingo in Central Zimbabwe are the ruins of one of the greatest civilizations of the Middle Ages. 

When European explorers first discovered the ruins, they simply couldn’t believe that it was built by native Africans. 

Subsequent archeological investigations showed not just that they were wrong, but that the civilization which was there had contact with some of the furthest reaches of the known world. 

Learn more about Great Zimbabwe, one of Africa’s greatest empires, on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.

Introduced in 1968, the Boeing 747 totally revolutionized commercial air transportation. It was more than twice the size of the next closest passenger plane, and it brought air travel to a much wider audience.

Not only did it help democratize air travel, but the plane’s unique features also added a new element of style and luxury to the jet age. 

In addition to carrying passengers, it has also served as an important cargo aircraft, and it has even served as Air Force One.

Learn more about the Boeing 747 on the 747th episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
