Joseph A. Altsheler wrote several volumes of fiction that cover the service of Confederate soldier Harry Kenton and his friends as they take part in various battles of the Civil War. Altsheler’s books have been historically popular amoung young readers and adults alike. This volume covers the Battle of Gettysburg, the greatest battle of the war and the biggest battle in the Western hemisphere. Considered the high tide of the Confederacy, the Union victory pushed Robert E. Lee’s army out of Pennsylvania, and he would never again be able to invade the North.
