Summary: SUPERNATURALLY COMPELLING!
Review: I have read Mark Nesbitt's four series of books about the Ghosts of Gettysburg and I must say I was very impressed, both with Mr. Nesbitt's writing techniques as well as with the stories themselves. In writing the stories, Mr. Nesbitt incorporated any history involved with each one, so that the reader was able to learn a little bit about what happened during that fateful battle. So many people take being an American for granted. We should never, ever forget what our ancestors went through to gain the freedom that each of us enjoy and take for granted each and every day. If you are open-minded about the spirit world and even if you aren't and want to learn more about Gettysburg, read these stories. They are very compelling and will keep you in suspense. They will also touch your heart regarding the many tragedies that took place there. Mr. Nesbitt, many compliments to you sir and please keep writing! I look forward to reading your next book on the Ghosts of Gettysburg! I also look forward to hopefully meeting you in person the next time I visit Gettysburg!

Summary: A mesmorizing must have for Gettysburg fanatics!
Review: I originally purchased this book quite a few many years ago in one of the many Gettysburg gift shops and read so many times, the cover fell off. (Thankfully, Amazon had it in stock!) Mark Nesbitt truly does a wonderful job and his stories are not only varied but give the reader an almost surreal sense of what the people he interviewed were experiencing! So if you enjoy tales of the beyond and Civil war history, this book is for you.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: History written in a different manner
Review: I really loved this book. I had started reading a friends copy at his house and got so into it that I had to get my own. What a great read!

Summary: Excellent Book
Review: Mark is a great author and this book is what gave me an interest in the paranormal. He weaves the history of Gettysburg into each story and makes you want to visit the battlefield and experience it yourself. If you are planning a visit to Gettysburg, read this book and it will enhance your experience.

Summary: Great Galloping Ghosts!
Review: Mark Nesbitt's series, Ghosts of Gettysburg (five volumes), consists of some of the best paranormal journalism I have
ever read in years. These books actually kept me awake nights.
I have never been to Gettysburg, Pa, but Mr. Nesbitt makes
you feel as if you are there, complete with all it's colorful
history, and it's hauntings. Mr. Nesbitt seems to be neither
a skeptic or believer, he lets you decide. Don't let the small
page count of each volume fool you, there is a lot to read.
I can hardly wait for volume six.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Fascinating...
Review: One of five great books in the Ghosts of Gettysburg series by Mark Nesbitt, having read them all, I anxiously await his next. Whether or not you're a believer in the supernatural, these books will touch, educate, and fascinate you. They don't sensationalize, you don't get the feeling you're reading a bunch of goofy ghost stories. He presents the information in a very objective manner, and lets the reader make their own judgement. His research is thorough, he gives great context to the events he describes, and all of these books will grab you from page one. I can't wait for #6! (And if you ever have the opportunity to go to Gettysburg & take one of his tours, definitely do it - they really bring the books to life...)

Summary: Fascinating, well written and genuinly spooky.
Review: One of the best ghost books I have read this year. Nesbit combines a historian's eye for detail with the story teller's ear for prose. A truly great read.
