Audible Editor Reviews
Men at Gettysburg. a comprehensive history of the Battle of Gettysburg
by American writer Clifford Dowdey. His intense performance underlines
the importance of the 1863 conflict, which resulted in nearly 50,000
deaths and is considered to be the turning point in the American Civil
War. This meticulously researched audiobook focuses on the Confederate
troops, led by the brilliant General Robert E. Lee, and the series of
events that led to their ultimate downfall.
Publisher's Summary
In this sweeping account Clifford Dowdey recreates one of the most important
battles in U.S. history. With vivid and breathtaking detail, Lee and
His Men at Gettysburg is both a historical work and an honorary ode
to the almost 50,000 soldiers who died at the fields of Pennsylvania.
Written with an emphasis on the Confederate forces, the book captures
the brilliance and frustration of a general forced to contend with overwhelming
odds and in-competent subordinates. Dowdey not only presents the facts
of war, but brings to life the cast of characters that defined this
singular moment in American history.
