On its first day, Confederate General Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia sought to destroy the Union army, forcing its men to retreat through the streets of the Pennsylvania town to the hills just to the south. This volume, the first of three to cover the battle in depth, includes the morning cavalry skirmish, the morning clash at the Herbst's Woodlot and at the railroad cut, the afternoon clash at Oak Ridge, the afternoon fight at the Edward McPherson farm, the afternoon rout of the 11th Corps, the last stand of the 1st Corps at Seminary Ridge, the Union retreat through town, and the positions of the armies at nightfall.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 248mmItem Length: 184mmItem Weight: 314gAuthor: Timothy OrrIllustrator: Steve NoonContributor: Steve Noon (Illustrated by)Genre: Law & PoliticsBook Series: CampaignTopic: History, Military HistoryRelease Year: 2022 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
