The Killer Angels

Unknown Author

4.9/5 (11307 ratings)

Description:John Jakes Library of Historical FictionIn the four most bloody & courageous days of the nation's history, two armies fought for two dreams. One dreamed of freedom, the other of a way of life. Far more than rifles & bullets were carried into battle. There were memories. There were promises. There was love. Far more than men fell on those Pennsylvania fields. Shattered futures, forgotten innocence & crippled beauty were also casualties of war. The Killer Angels is sweeping, unforgettable—a dramatic recreation of the battleground for the destiny of the United States. Michael Shaara won a Pulitzer for Fiction in 1975 for The Killer Angels, his 2nd published novel, a portrayal of the Battle of Gettysburg. It took him years to research the book, even enlisting his then teenage son Jeff to crawl around under the brush in order to find long-covered up markers. The Killer Angels was rejected by fifteen publishers before the small, independent David McKay Co. purchased the manuscript. It was a critical success & commercial flop. The public wasn't interested in war stories in the aftermath of Vietnam. It wasn't until five years after Shaara's death that it hit the bestseller lists, climbing all the way to #1 on The NY Times list.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
