    A wonderful account of the Battle of Gettysburg. If you like Civil War history - this one is not to be missed.

    This novel made me fall in love with the Civil War. Perhaps the last of the "romantic" wars, this novel really gives life to those that fought during this tumultuous time in our history.

    I had one person tell me this is "boy book." But I really enjoyed it. I found the details of the war interesting, but I had the advantage of knowing I was going to see Gettysburg in a month, so that really motivated me to read it. I thought it was especially written in the sense that you get a feel for several different characters as you read their first person thoughts. I was moved to tears several times as I walked where these men walked, particularly where Pickett's charge ended. A great civil war book!

    This book put me inside the head of a Civil War general during one of the greatest battles of the war.
