About this product

Product Information

The New York Times bestselling prequel to the Pulitzer Prize-winning classic The Killer Angels In this brilliantly written epic novel, Jeff Shaara traces the lives, passions, and careers of the great military leaders from the first gathering clouds of the Civil War. Here is Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson, a hopelessly by-the-book military instructor and devout Christian who becomes the greatest commander of the Civil War; Winfield Scott Hancock, a captain of quartermasters who quickly establishes himself as one of the finest leaders of the Union army; Joshua Chamberlain, who gives up his promising academic career and goes on to become one of the most heroic soldiers in American history; and Robert E. Lee, never believing until too late that a civil war would ever truly come to pass. Profound in its insights into the minds and hearts of those who fought in the war, Gods and Generals creates a vivid portrait of the soldiers, the battlefields, and the tumultuous times that forever shaped the nation.

  • Average book, not as good as movie

    If there's one thing Jeff Shaara's good at, it's making you sense the emotions of each character in the book. He really draws you into their minds, and you begin to relate to the struggles they have and the challenges they face. But if you don't enjoy reading about the Civil War, this book is probably not for you.

  • Excellent Book. very well written

    Excellent book of ACW. Gives the characters of the movie incredible insight into their thoughts and adversities they endured.
