Title: Not too bad. . .a pretty good read
Review: Purchasing this book on a whim I thought it was entertaining (but not as good as The Killing Angels) and until I discovered that it was one of those "what if" history books. I almost gave up reading it, but am I glad I did not. It ended up being a very good read. In fact, I could hardly put it down. I do not want to give the plot away, but Gingrich and Forstchen give a very good "what if" scenario if history had taken a different turn that day.What makes this book especially good in the insight the authors give concerning the life of the everyday solider. They bring us back through history, to the killing fields of Gettysburg, the horrific wounds the soldiers received and the sheer terror of being a foot solider in that great and terrible war.Is it a great book? No, not really, but it is a very good book and worth the read.
Is the review positive or negative?
