PULITZER PRIZE WINNER • NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The “remarkable” (Ken Burns), “utterly absorbing” (Forbes) Civil War classic that inspired the film Gettysburg

“My favorite historical novel . . . a superb re-creation of the Battle of Gettysburg, but its real importance is its insight into what the war was about, and what it meant.”—James M. McPherson
 
In the four most bloody and courageous days of our nation’s history, two armies fought for two conflicting dreams. One dreamed of freedom, the other of a way of life. Far more than rifles and bullets were carried into battle. There were memories. There were promises. There was love. And far more than men fell on those Pennsylvania fields. Bright futures, untested innocence, and pristine beauty were also the casualties of war. Michael Shaara’s Pulitzer Prize–winning masterpiece is unique, sweeping, unforgettable—the dramatic story of the battleground for America’s destiny.©1974 Michael Shaara, copyright renewed 2002 Jeffrey M.

Kritikerstimmen

“The best and most realistic historical novel about war I have ever read.”—General H. Norman Schwarzkopf

“My favorite historical novel . . . A superb re-creation of the Battle of Gettysburg, but its real importance is its insight into what the war was about, and what it meant.”—James M. McPherson

“Remarkable . . . A book that changed my life . . . I had never visited Gettysburg, knew almost nothing about that battle before I read the book, but here it all came alive.”—Ken Burns, filmmaker

“Shaara carries [the reader] swiftly and dramatically to a climax as exciting as if it were being heard for the first time.”—The Seattle Times

Ich muss gestehen ich habe das Buch gelesen, den Film gesehen und die beiden
Anschlussbücher " Gods and Generals" und "The last full Measure" von ShaaraŽs Sohn verschlungen.
Das Hörbuch ist genauso brilliant wie das Buch, der Sprecher ist sehr gut zu verstehen (kann natürlich an oben genannten Vorkenntnissen liegen). Einfach hervorragend.

Brilliant

A wonderful account of one of the turning points in US history. Shaara’s work didn’t receive the acclaim it deserved at the time and is sadly overshadowed by the cultural-political issues of the present. I’d always side with the Union, but the author captures the hopelessness of the southern cause and renders it a more human endeavour. The chapter dealing with Armistead’s death almost had me in tears.

Exciting, thoughtful, moving.

Großartige Darstellung von Schlachtgeschehen und Emotionen. Man fühlt sich mittendrin statt nur dabei. Gute Schilderung der Charaktere. Lesenswert!

mitreißend!
