Synopsis
For the first time, a single volume offers detailed biographical sketches of every Federal and Confederate general who served at Gettysburg. In addition to typical background information, the book covers where each general served on the field, what he did, and why he did it. Tagg critiques each officer thoughtfully and objectively, praising and condemning where appropriate.
Jammed with colorful anecdotes, The Generals of Gettysburg fills a large niche in the genre and will appeal to experts and scholars as well as to casual Civil War enthusiasts.
