About this product

Product Information

"My favorite historical novel . . . a superb re-creation of the Battle of Gettysburg, but its real importance is its insight into what the war was about, and what it meant."--James M. McPherson 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.

The book is in perfect condition, brand new, and is exactly as described. This item is difficult to find here, and the seller priced it very reasonably. It shipped from the UK to Canada, and unfortunately took a little longer to arrive than the seller hoped, but it was shipped less than 24 hours after I purchased. When I contacted the seller, they were very responsive and helpful. I would not hesitate to purchase from this seller again. Definitely recommend!

  • A Pulitzer Prize-Winning Novel Well Worth the Accolades

    Michael Shaara's Pulitzer Prize-winning historical novel "The Killer Angels" provides more details about the Battle of Gettysburg than any piece of academic nonfiction. His account of the "High Water Mark" of the Civil War features deft characterizations, including Confederate Generals Robert E. Lee, James Longstreet, and George Pickett as well as Union Generals Buford, and Hancock. Shaara successfully presents various perspectives of the three-day battle by using his characters' voices. The most compelling figure in the book is Colonel Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, whose 20th Maine regiment held the Union's left flank on the second day of the battle. The unit's bravery at Little Round Top helped turn the tide of the second day and set the stage for the third day's confrontation at ...

  • A review of Killer Angels by M. Shaara

    I found this to be a difficult read, not because it was poorly written but because of the amount of detail and facts included. Shaara uses actual notes written by the generals and their lieutenants to keep the story acurate with detail. A great depiction of the Battle of Gettysburg during the Civil War. The Civil War was a war between the North (Union) and the South (Confederates) of the United States of America over various different reasons. The war lasts from April 12, 1861 to May 1865 occurring 5 years of bloodshed against a divided country. Shaara specifically covers the Battle of Gettysburg which takes place from July 1, 1863, to July 3, 1863. The Battle of Gettysburg was a major turning point of the war. If the Confederates had won Gettysburg, the Confederates would have certainly ...
