Imperfect Union

A Father's Search for His Son in the Aftermath of the Battle of Gettysburg

Edición de la obra Imperfect Union

This vivid exploration of one of Gettysburg s most famous stories--the story of a father and a son, the son s courage under fire, and the father s search for his son in the bloody aftermath of battle--reconstructs Bayard Wilkeson s wounding and death, which have been shrouded in myth and legend, and sheds light on Civil War era journalism, battlefield medicine, and the good death.
