Críticas:
"Two respected historians, one horrific battle - and the challenging question of "what if...?' Sure to become a Civil War classic to be read and remembered." --W.E.B. Griffin, author of Final Justice "Gettysburg is a creative, clever, and fascinating 'what if?' novel that promises to excite and entertain America's legions of Civil War buffs." --James Carville "As historical fiction this stands beside The Killer Angels. As an alternative history of Gettysburg, it stands alone. The mastery of operational history enables the authors to expand the story's scope. The larger-scale, more fluid battle of Gettysburg described is internally consistent, a logical consequence of the novel's challenging major premise. The narrative is so clear that the action can be followed without maps. And the characters are sometimes heartbreakingly true to their historical originals." --Dennis Showalter, former president of the Society of Military Historians "The novel Gettysburg puts forth a highly plausible and exciting scenario of a Confederate victory in the Pennsylvania campaign of 1863. The authors exhibit an in-depth knowledge of not only technical details, but also the various personalities of the leaders and how they could have reacted had things gone quite differently from history as we know it." --Don Troiani, noted Civil War artist
Reseña del editor:
The Battle of Gettyburg was, even before the guns fell silent, a focal point of debate, and it has become the great "what if" of American history. The highly-acclaimed New York Times bestseller Gettysburg unfolds an alternate path and creates for General Robert E. Lee and his Army the victory they might have won on the fields of Gettysburg. Thoroughly researched for five years, Gingrich and Forstchen infuse this masterwork with dramatic battle scenes, military strategy, and captivating period details. An important entry in the pantheon of civil war literature, Gettysburg is a vivid novel of the realities of war.
