In the summer of 1863, as Union and Confederate armies converged on
southern Pennsylvania, the town of Gettysburg found itself thrust
onto the center stage of war. The three days of fighting that
ensued decisively turned the tide of the Civil War. In "The Colors
of Courage," Margaret Creighton narrates the tale of this crucial
battle from the viewpoint of three unsung groups--women,
immigrants, and African Americans--and reveals how wide the
conflict's dimensions were. A historian with a superb flair for
storytelling, Creighton draws on memoirs, letters, diaries, and
newspapers to bring to life the individuals at the heart of her
narrative. "The Colors of Courage" is a stunningly fluid work of
original history-one that redefines the Civil War's most remarkable
battle.
