Gettysburg is the sixth in a series of novels spanning the Civil War and describing its effects
on one Southern family.
Although Stonewall Jackson is dead, Confederate morale is high. Will and Mac, the two eldest Brannon
sons, are in the ranks of the Stonewall Brigade and Jeb Stuart's cavalry. As Jackson's former corps
marches up the Shenandoah Valley, Lee's army follows, and they eventually clash at Gettysburg. Will is
kept in the thick of the combat around Culp's Hill, while Mac sees action with the Southern cavalry at
Hanover. Both are swallowed up in the melee of the fighting, and neither emerges unscathed.
Bruised and bleeding, the Confederate army stumbles back into Virginia, a fourth of their number dead. As
news spreads of the defeat and the huge number of casualties, the Brannon clan, back in Culpeper County,
anxiously awaits word of the fate of two sons.
James Reasoner, a veteran writer of historical fiction, is the author of several volumes in the Civil War Battle series as well as the Wagons West series. He lives near Azle, Texas.
Lloyd James hails from the Midwest. He received a B.A. in theater from a small liberal-arts college in New Mexico. He acts in the theater when his schedule permits and spends much of his free time working in his garden. He lives in Virginia with his wife and son.
