An impeccably detailed account of the Civil War’s largest—and most pivotal—battle and the Southern soldiers who gave their all on the battlefield.
 
In this sweeping account, Clifford Dowdey recreates one of the most important battles in US history. With vivid and breathtaking detail, Lee and His Men at Gettysburg is both a historical work and an honorary ode to the almost fifty thousand soldiers who died in the fields of Pennsylvania. Written with an emphasis on the Confederate forces, this book captures the brilliance and frustration of a general forced to contend with overwhelming odds and incompetent 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.
 
“Lively, critical, judicious, and scholarly.” —Henry Steele Commager, The New York Times
