GDG- How many Gettysburg books?

At first glance I counted 103 books.  Like Tom they include hard & soft 
backs, fiction & non-fiction.  The Friends monographs & Farnsworth Commander 
Series are included.  I didn't count magazines or anything related to any 
other battle.  There are probably another 50 or so in the category of 
General Civil War.  I hadn't counted them in a long time and always thought 
my collection was modest.  I am surprised at the number!
