- Summary
- "Through this study, I am attempting to use some of the more recent scholarship to explain Antietam as a place in time, beyond the combat. In this book, it is hoped that the reader will come away with a better understanding of the opposing forces, the Sharpsburg community, the horrible aftermath of the battle and the history of the formation of the battlefield park"--Page 13.
