The year is 1863, and General Robert E. Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia are poised to attack the North and claim the victory that would end the brutal conflict. Launching his men into a vast, sweeping operation, of which the town of Gettysburg is but one small part of the plan, General Lee, acting as he did at Chancellorville, Second Manassas, and Antietam, displays the audacity of old. He knows he has but one more good chance to gain ultimate victory, for after two years of war the relentless power of an industrialized North is wearing the South down. Lee's lieutenants and the men in the ranks, imbued with this renewed spirit of the offensive, embark on the Gettysburg Campaign that many dream should have been. The soldiers in the line, Yank and Reb, knew as well that this would be the great challenge, the decisive moment that would decide whether a nation would die or be created, and both sides were ready, willing to lay down their lives for their Cause. An action-packed and painstakingly researched masterwork, Gettysburg stands as the first book in a trilogy to tell the story of how history could have unfolded, how a victory for Lee would have changed the destiny of the nation forever.

Longstreet was right!
Great read and fine piece of what if history that could have occurred, but didn't. Pickett's charge would not have occurrred and Lee and his generals could have been marching on Washington instead on back toward Virginia if General Longstreet's plan to flank the Union forces and get to high ground at Union Mills would have been followed. The characters (Lee and Union) and their feelings and fears as interpruted by the writers & historians are excellent! Will read other books in same series.
