Summary: Outstanding as only Foote can tell it.
Review: A very descriptive and personal insight into one of the horrific battles of the Civil War. Through the soft southern voice of Mr. Foote you sense what it must have been like that fateful day. Ride along with General Lee that early morning as he reviews his troops, talks with his "Old War Horse" and contemplates the bloody battle to come. Mr. Foote describes in great passionate detail the individual participants, strategy and events leading up to, during and after this battle. Take a glimpse back in time at the beautiful and tranquil rolling hills of Pennsylvania farmland. Soon to erupt to the most massive cannonade attack of the war. The once peaceful farmland will be covered by rivers of blood. Strewn throughout the countryside mounds of the dead and dying both man and beast . After listening to this gripping audio tape, you will have experience the tragedies and horror of this battle both physically and psychologically from both sides. This account by Mr. Foote is a keeper and is a constant reminder of the ultimate sacrifice.
