Barksdale's Charge: The True High Tide of the Confederacy at Gettysburg, July 2, 1863


English | 336 pages | ISBN-10: 1612001793 | EPUB | 5 MB

For pure pageantry it was unsurpassed, and it also marked the centerpiece of the war, both time-wise and in terms of how the conflict had turned a corner-from persistent Confederate hopes to impending Rebel despair. But Pickett's Charge was crushed by the Union defenders that day, having never had a chance in the first place.
