Publisher's Synopsis
Veteran author and lecturer Scott L. Mingus has assembled a collection of more than 350 of the best human interest stories, anecdotes, and incidents from the 1863 Battle of Gettysburg. Adapted and rewritten from hundreds of 19th century letters, diaries, journals, regimental histories, memoirs, and newspaper accounts, this anthology offers new insight into some of the individual soldiers who fought at Gettysburg, and the civilians who lived along their routes to the battle and during the subsequent retreat into Virginia.
