Three Days

The Army of Northern Virginia, under Robert E. Lee, was running out of supplies. The war had been going on too long, and now Lee needed to make a risky decision. Some of his best subordinates were injured or lost at battle. As they entered Pennsylvania, hoping to surprise the Army of Potomac, they encountered them head on. In this novel, both the fictional version of Lee’s tragedy and the account of an anonymous Confederate soldier take the reader into the three long days of the Battle of Gettysburg in a vivid, powerful way.
