The infantry assault, consisting of nine brigades of military in a lines that extended for over a mile, led to casualties of over 50 percent for the Confederates and an enormous subconscious blow to Southern morale.

This book reveals a much-needed fresh look, like the unvarnished truths and awful realities, about the remarkable story.
