Wert re-creates the last day of the bloody Battle of Gettysburg in astonishing detail, taking readers from Meade’s council of war to the seven-hour struggle for Culp’s Hill — the most sustained combat of the entire engagement. Drawing on hundreds of sources, including more than 400 manuscript collections, he offers brief excerpts from the letters and diaries of soldiers. He also introduces heroes on both sides of the conflict — among them General George Greene, the oldest general on the battlefield, who led the Union troops at Culp’s Hill.
