As an alternative history of Gettysburg, it stands alone. The mastery of operational history enables the authors to expand the story's scope.

The narrative is so clear that the action can be followed without maps. And the characters are sometimes heartbreakingly true to their historical originals., "Two respected historians, one horrific battle - and the challenging question of "what if...?'
