With compassion you can die for other people, like the mother who can die for her child. You have the courage to say it because you are not afraid of losing anything, because you know that understanding and love is the foundation of happiness. But if you have fear of losing your status, your position, you will not have the courage to do it.

FREDERICKSBURG TO MERIDIAN

"Gettysburg...is described with such meticulous attention to action, terrain, time, and the characters of the various commanders that I understand, at last, what happened in that battle.... Mr. Foote has an acute sense of the relative importance of events and a novelist's skill in directing the reader's attention to the men and the episodes that will influence the course of the whole war, without omitting items which are of momentary interest. His organization of facts could hardly be better."--Atlantic

Focused on the pivotal year of 1863 the second volume of Shelby Foote's masterful narrative history brings to life some of the most dramatic and important moments in the Civil War including the Battle of Gettysburg and Grant"s Vicksburg campaign. "Foote has an acute sense of the relative importance of events and a novelist"s skill in directing the reader"s attention to the men and the episodes that will influence the course of the whole war without omitting items which are of momentary interest. His organization of facts could hardly be better." -The Atlantic "Though the events of this middle year of the Civil War have been recounted hundreds of times they have rarely been re-created with such vigor and such picturesque detail." -The New York Times Book Review "The lucidity of the battle narratives the vigor of the prose the strong feeling for the men from generals to privates who did the fighting are all controlled by constant sense of how it happened and what it was all about. Foote has the novelist"s feeling for character and situation without losing the historian"s scrupulous regard for recorded fact. The Civil War is likely to stand unequaled." -Walter Mills
