Book Synopsis Nine Months to Gettysburg by : Howard Coffin
Book excerpt: This compelling saga of the Second Vermont Brigade and its vital role at Gettysburg fills a significant gap in the history of America's Civil War. In this unique eyewitness account, Coffin draws on scores of soldiers' letters to relate how and why young recruits from isolated hill farms flocked to the Union colors in response to Lincoln's call in 1862. 45 illustrations.
