One of  my best days at Gettysburg was the day that I spent 8 hours walking 
the  entire Wheatfield area with three books on that part of the battle.  It  
really helped with understanding the confusing events of the afternoon of  
the July 2nd.  The best part was getting the sense of the terrain  with all 
the ups and downs of the area - nothing is flat  there. 
 
Yes, for many years the events in and near the Wheatfield were perhaps the  
most confusing in the Battle for me (even after having read Pfanz's masterful  
book),  But a couple years ago, walking and driving the terrain with  
excellent maps and reference books at hand finally gave me an understanding of  how 
the separate bits of terrain fit together and how the various events linked  up.
