    The Civil War is the American Iliad, with figures like Lincoln, Stonewall Jackson, Grant, and Lee embodying heroic ideals akin to Achilles and Hector. Among the myriad battles, Gettysburg stands out, drawing millions annually to its historic fields, where Chamberlain's legendary stand and Pickett's doomed charge became symbols of the Lost Cause. Over time, the debate surrounding this pivotal moment has intensified, transforming it into the great "what if" of American history—a dreamscape where Confederate banners might have crowned the heights. In 1863, General Robert E. Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia prepared to strike the North, seeking a victory to end the brutal conflict. However, Lee's campaign ultimately failed, sealing the war's fate. Embarking on a sweeping operation, Lee displayed the audacity that had characterized his previous battles, knowing this was his last chance for victory as the industrial North wore down the South. His lieutenants and soldiers, driven by a renewed spirit, faced the decisive moment that would determine the nation's future. This meticulously researched novel by Newt Gingrich and William Forstchen explores how a Confederate victory at Gettysburg could have altered the course of history, capturing true heroism and glory in America's darkest hour.
