Description
The Star of Gettysburg is a historical fiction novel written by Joseph A. Altsheler. It is set during the American Civil War and follows the story of a young Union soldier named Dick Mason. Dick is a member of the famous Iron Brigade, a group of soldiers known for their bravery and fighting skills. The novel begins with the Battle of Bull Run, where Dick witnesses the horrors of war for the first time. He is then sent to join the Iron Brigade, where he quickly becomes a respected member of the group. The story takes a dramatic turn when Dick is captured by Confederate soldiers and taken to a prison camp. While there, he meets a young Southern girl named Lucy, who helps him escape. Together, they embark on a dangerous journey back to the Union lines. As the war rages on, Dick and his fellow soldiers are sent to fight in the Battle of Gettysburg. It is here that Dick discovers the true meaning of bravery and sacrifice as he fights to defend his country and protect his fellow soldiers. The Star of Gettysburg is a thrilling and emotional tale of courage, friendship, and the devastating consequences of war. Altsheler's vivid descriptions of battle scenes and his attention to historical detail make this book a must-read for anyone interested in the Civil War.Harry, leaning against a bush, fell into a light doze, from which Dalton aroused him bye and bye. But the habit of war made him awake fully and instantly. Every faculty was alive. He arose to his feet and saw that Lee and Jackson were just parting. A faint moon shone over the Wilderness, revealing but little of the great army which lay in its thickets.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
