Description
"Vividly recreating one of the most dramatic battles in American history. [This book] brings to life what began as a brilliant, triumphant campaign for the Union forces under 'Fighting Joe' Hooker, only to falter when faced with the genius of Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee. Soldiers in tattered gray bring off an against-all-odds vicotory over a blue-clad force three times their unmber as the Union army struggles with internal rivalries, anti-immigrant prejudice, and selfish ambition--and soldiers on both sides suffer and bleed by the thousands. Rigorously true to history, this epic captures the high drama, the human complexty,, and the existential threat that nearly tore the United States in two. Featuring a rich range of fascinating characters, from tehf amous, such as Lee, Jackson, Stuart, Hooker, and Meade, to valiant oung battery commanders fighting at point-blank range aamid the chaos and infantry privates tormented by their feet, this is , avove all, a portrait of the human side of war. [This book] offers the reader an unprecedented, stirring account of a campaign that military officers still study today--and that set the stage for the soon-to-come carnage of Gettysburg (Feated in Cain at Gettyburg)."-- Jacket.
