The fight for Little Round Top on July 2, 1863, is forever etched
in the annals of America's Civil War. The heroic defense of the
high ground by Joshua Chamberlain and the men of the 20th Maine is
one of the most famous incidents in American history, made more so
by its powerful depiction in the film "Gettysburg." There are
numerous written accounts of the Union defenders on Little Round
Top but considerably less has been written--up to now--about the
Confederate attackers who charged up the hill and faced an even
more desperate challenge than those who defended it. Unique and
colorful, this new study brings to life the men and officers of the
15th Alabama who gathered that day to assault the Union flank. The
lively narration of this dramatic engagement is both detailed and
authoritative. Veteran Civil War author Phillip Tucker colorfully
evokes the men and the times--from descriptions of the Alabamans'
Chattahoochee River valley home to sketches of the lives and
personalities of William C. Oates and other key members of the
regiment.
