Paperback. Condition: Good. A string of Confederate victories at Second Manassas, Fredericksburg, and Chancellorsville led to the June 1863 invasion of Pennsylvania by General Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. As Lee was aiming toward Harrisburg, the state capital, General George G. Meade's Army of the Potomac drove hard to catch up with him. Although neither general had planned to fight at the small crossroads town of Gettysburg, a skirmish broke out on July 1 when advance elements of the Confederate army collided with pickets from a Yankee cavalry brigade. Three days of bitter fighting ensued. When the vicious encounter was over - having been fought at places like the railroad cut, Devil's Den, the Wheatfield, Little Round Top, and Culp's Hill, and culminating in Pickett's desperate charge on July 3 - Lee's army was in retreat, and Meade had scored a major victory for the North. Based on deep knowledge of the battle and battlefield and driven by masterful, excitingly paced storytelling, They Met at Gettysburg is the classic narrative of the greatest battle ever fought on American soil.…

Paperback. Condition: Very Good. In four dreadful hours in the murk of a December day in 1862, substantial portions of a magnificent Union Army were shattered in fruitless charges against a stone wall on the outskirts of Fredericksburg, Virginia. From above and behind that wall, continous sheets of musketry fire and devastating artillery bursts crashed into wave upon wave of incomparably brave Yankee troops marching to their death. Whatever credit may be gleaned from the wreckage of Northern hopes on the Rappahannock that winter belongs to the well-disciplined fighting men of the Army of the Potomac who were needlessly slaughtered as a result of inept leadership at teh higher command levels. This book covers the period from October 1862 through January 1863, during which the Army of the Potomac under Ambrose Burnside crossed swords with the apparently invincible Army of Northern Virginia under Robert E. Lee and once again went down to a crushing and bloodly defeat. Longstreet, Stonewall Jackson, J. E. B. Stuart, A. P. Hill, Jubal Early, and others played important parts for the South, and Meade, Reynolds, Hooker, Hancock, Couch, and others did so for the North. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…
