Product Overview
My favorite historical novel . . . a superb re-creation of the Battle of Gettysburg, but its real importance is its insight into what the war was about, and what it meant.James M. McPherson
In the four most bloody and courageous days of our nations history, two armies fought for two conflicting dreams. One dreamed of freedom, the other of a way of life. Far more than rifles and bullets were carried into battle. There were memories. There were promises. There was love. And far more than men fell on those Pennsylvania fields. Bright futures, untested innocence, and pristine beauty were also the casualties of war. Michael Shaaras Pulitzer Prizewinning masterpiece is unique, sweeping, unforgettablethe dramatic story of the battleground for Americas destiny.
