Synopsis

Nearly 4,700 Confederate soldiers are known to have died as a result of the Battle of Gettysburg. Confederates Killed in Action at Gettysburg, by historian Gregory A. Coco, offers a selection of 50 stories, each describing the last moments of a soldier's life from Gen. Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. The accounts are as haunting as they are informative. A perfect companion to A Strange and Blighted Land, A Vast Sea of Misery, and Wasted Valor.
