In this book, America's most eminent Civil War historian, James M. McPherson, paints a masterful account of the Battle of Antietam, the events that led up to it, and its aftermath. He brilliantly weaves together strands of diplomatic, political, and military history into a compact, swift-moving narrative that shows why America's bloodiest day is, indeed, a turning point in our history.
