SynopsisThe New York Times bestselling prequel to the Pulitzer Prize-winning classic The Killer Angels In this brilliantly written epic novel, Jeff Shaara traces the lives, passions, and careers of the great military leaders from the first gathering clouds of the Civil War. Here is Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson, a hopelessly by-the-book military instructor and devout Christian who becomes the greatest commander of the Civil War; Winfield Scott Hancock, a captain of quartermasters who quickly establishes himself as one of the finest leaders of the Union army; Joshua Chamberlain, who gives up his promising academic career and goes on to become one of the most heroic soldiers in American history; and Robert E. Lee, never believing until too late that a civil war would ever truly come to pass. Profound in its insights into the minds and hearts of those who fought in the war, Gods and Generals creates a vivid portrait of the soldiers, the battlefields, and the tumultuous times that forever shaped the nation.

    Very Compelling

    Prequel to "The Killer Angels" introduces you to the main characters involved in that book. It delves into the personalities of these characters and the motives for the difficult decisions these men had to make. A very good book written by the son of the author of "Killer Angels".

    Civil War Generals

    This is an excellent addition to and Civil War novel. It should be read along with "Killer Angels." Which was written by the author's father and was a Pulitzer Prize novel. Both novels are worth the read.

    Great insight...easy for a non-military person to comprehend. Very thorough, graphic

    This book has given me great insight into a period of history I heretofore considered male territory, too complicated and gruesome for my senior citizen, tender hearted, squeamish mentality. Instead, it has awakened an interest in knowing things I should have known for decades about a critical time in my country's history...and a sure knowedge that if we fail to remember the past we are doomed to repeat it.

    Civil War decision makers understanding

    It's an easy to understand read with explanation of why Generals chose their states over the Union. Also explains that President Abraham Lincoln was not liked my many people of his time as he worked to keep the Union together.

    Another wonderful Jeff Shaara Book

    If you've never read a novel by Jeff Shaara, be ready for a treat. This is not non-fiction. This is not a sleep-inducing, dry novel. It is an engrossing combination of personal stories from all levels of the battlefield. You experience the point of view from the commanding generals to those fighting on the ground. Always an enjoyable read!
