GOTTFRIED FIRST EDITION; FIRST PRINTING MINT CONDITION MINT CONDITION DUST JACKET Original, Sharp, Bright, Clean, Solidly Bound, New Book Contains Illustrations, Portraits and Maps Throughout Fully Referenced and Indexed; with Bibliography PUBLISHED BY DA CAPO PRESS, IN 2002 The first comprehensive chronicle of every Union and Confederate brigade at the Battle of Gettysburg. Using a wealth of first-person accounts, Bradley M. Gottfried weaves a fascinating account of each brigade’s experience at Gettysburg – from the forced marches of weary Federal troops as they approached the town of Gettysburg to the battle’s bitter and tragic end on a hot July day. Using the soldiers’ own words, Gottfried vividly brings to life every action of every brigade – where it fought, who commanded, and how it performed in battle. And we learn what it was like when the action stopped, when fear and boredom gripped the men as they waited in awful dread. The reader is in for some surprises, such as the description of units with undistinguished pasts suddenly fighting furiously on their own soil, the number of commanders who were seeing action for the first time, and how battle flags helped shape the complexion of the battle. Innovative in its approach, and comprehensive in its coverage, Brigades of Gettysburg is a lively and fascinating narrative that will remain a valuable resource for years to come.
