Inside the Pulitzer prize-winning common The Killer Angels, Michael Shaara created the best possible Civil War novel in our time, an long lasting best retailer that has sold more than two million copies. Inside the best-selling Gods and Generals, Shaara's boy, Jeff, brilliantly sustained his father's eye-sight, showing the epic tale of the events culminating in the Struggle of Gettysburg. Now, Jeff Shaara brings this famous father-son trilogy to its stunning finish in a novel that brings alive the final 2 yrs of the Civil Conflict. As The Last Full Measure opens, Gettysburg is previous and the conflict developments to its third brutal time. Around the Union aspect, the gulf between your politicians in Washington and the generals in the field yawns ever before wider. Never has the cumbersome Union Army so frantically needed a decisive, hard-nosed leader. It is at this critical instant that Lincoln places Ulysses S. Offer in control - and converts the tide of conflict. For Robert E. Lee, Gettysburg was an unspeakable disaster - compounded by the shattering loss of the fiery Stonewall Jackson two months before. Lee recognizes better than anyone who the South cannot make it through a conflict of attrition. But with the full total devotion of his generals - Longstreet, Hill, Stuart - and his unswerving trust in God, Lee is set to deal with to the bitter end. Here too is Joshua Chamberlain, the school professor who surfaced as the Union hero of Gettysburg - and who'll rise to become one of the greatest results of the Civil Conflict. Struggle by staggering fight, Shaara dramatizes the escalating confrontation between Lee and Offer - complicated, heroic, deeply troubled men. From your costly Struggle of the Wilderness to the agonizing siege of Petersburg to Lee's epoch-making surrender at Appomattox, Shaara portrays the riveting finish of the Civil Conflict through the imagination and hearts of the those who gave their last full measure. Full of human enthusiasm and the spellbinding fact of background, The Last Full Measure is the fitted capstone to a magnificent literary trilogy.
