The Killer Angels: The Classic Novel of the Civil War Summary Array

In The Four Most Bloody And Courageous Days Of Our Nation’s History, Two Armies Fought For Two Conflicting Dreams. One Dreamed Of Freedom, The Other Of A Way Of Life. Far More Than Rifles And Bullets Were Carried Into Battle. There Were Memories. There Were Promises. There Was Love. And Far More Than Men Fell On Those Pennsylvania Fields. Bright Futures, Untested Innocence, And Pristine Beauty Were Also The Casualties Of War. Michael Shaara’s Pulitzer Prize–winning Masterpiece Is Unique, Sweeping, Unforgettable—the Dramatic Story Of The Battleground For America’s Destiny.

This novel reveals more about the Battle of Gettysburg than any piece of learned nonfiction on the same subject. Michael Shaara's account of the three most important days of the Civil War features deft characterizations of all of the main actors, including Lee, Longstreet, Pickett, Buford, and Hancock. The most inspiring figure in the book, however, is Col. Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, whose 20th Maine regiment of volunteers held the Union's left flank on the second day of the battle. This unit's bravery at Little Round Top helped turned the tide of the war against the rebels. There are also plenty of maps, which convey a complete sense of what happened July 1-3, 1863. Reading about the past is rarely so much fun as on these pages.
