Seller's Description:
Lee Vande Visse (Three-Dimensional Maps) Very good in Very good jacket. 296 pages. Illustrated endpapers. Maps. Illustrations (many in color). Appendix. Order of Battle Overview. Notes. Bibliography. Index. Picture Credits. Foreword by James M. McPherson. DJ has some wear and scratches. David John Eicher (born August 7, 1961) is an American editor, writer, and popularizer of astronomy and space. He has been editor-in-chief of Astronomy magazine since 2002. He is author, coauthor, or editor of 21 books on science and American history and is known for having founded a magazine on astronomical observing, Deep Sky Monthly, when he was a 15-year-old high school student. Eicher is also a historian, having researched and written extensively about the American Civil War. Eicher has written eight books on the subject, including Dixie Betrayed, The Longest Night, Civil War High Commands, Gettysburg Battlefield, and The Civil War in Books. He has also been active in promoting Civil War remembrance and education. Gettysburg Battlefield is the definitive illustrated history of the largest and deadliest military campaign ever waged in the Western Hemisphere. Years in the making, it draws together the most complete collection of Gettysburg imagery ever published in a single volume along with a robust narrative. The author takes the reader on day-by-day through the battle, illustrated throughout with more than 480 photographs, many of them rare. Two visual features of this book are particularly compelling: Period photographs of key battlefield sites-taken just as the guns stilled-are juxtaposed with images of those same sites today. Three-dimensional maps were created especially for this book and offer a distinctive perspective on military strategy. Essays by civil war experts and a foreword by historian James M. McPherson complete this handsome and authoritative history. An essential addition to the Civil War library, Gettysburg Battlefield is a compelling chronicle of a legendary conflict and the ultimate pictorial record.
