Casemate Illustrated The Second Day at Gettysburg, July 2, 1863, (Paperback)

<b>A fully illustrated account of Gettysburg's second day, detailing troop movements, tactics, and the battle's lasting impact.</b><br><br>The second day at Gettysburg has defined what most Americans know today about 1863's most pivotal campaign in the Civil War's eastern theater. Two veteran armies in transition clashed desperately, in the process immortalizing sites such as Devil's Den, the Slaughter Pen, Little Round Top, The Wheatfield, the Peach Orchard, Cemetery Ridge, and Culp's Hill for all time. Not surprisingly, the drama produced a set of controversial and sometimes mythological characters whose names have become synonymous with the Gettysburg landscape--Longstreet, Barksdale, Hood, Hancock, Sickles, Greene, Chamberlain, and many more. <br><br>The fighting that day had serious implications for both armies that would affect not only the outcome of the bloodiest battle, but the entire war.<br><br>This fully illustrated account of the second day of Gettysburg explores the troops deployed, the tactics of both armies and how the fighting played out under the hot July sun.
