Paperback. Condición: Good. A string of Confederate victories at Second Manassas, Fredericksburg, and Chancellorsville led to the June 1863 invasion of Pennsylvania by General Robert E. Lee's Army of Northern Virginia. As Lee was aiming toward Harrisburg, the state capital, General George G. Meade's Army of the Potomac drove hard to catch up with him. Although neither general had planned to fight at the small crossroads town of Gettysburg, a skirmish broke out on July 1 when advance elements of the Confederate army collided with pickets from a Yankee cavalry brigade. Three days of bitter fighting ensued. When the vicious encounter was over - having been fought at places like the railroad cut, Devil's Den, the Wheatfield, Little Round Top, and Culp's Hill, and culminating in Pickett's desperate charge on July 3 - Lee's army was in retreat, and Meade had scored a major victory for the North. Based on deep knowledge of the battle and battlefield and driven by masterful, excitingly paced storytelling, They Met at Gettysburg is the classic narrative of the greatest battle ever fought on American soil.…

Hardcover. Condición: Near Fine. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Near Fine. 1st Edition. First Edition, Third Printing, November 1956, clearly stated on copyright page. Harrisburg, Pennsylvania: Eagle Books / The Telegraph Press, 1956. Hardcover in original pictorial dust jacket with the publisher's $4.95 price intact on the front flap. Brigadier General Edward J. Stackpole's classic military history of the Gettysburg Campaign and the three-day battle that became a decisive turning point of the American Civil War. The work follows the Confederate invasion of Pennsylvania, the movements and decisions of Generals Robert E. Lee and George G. Meade, and the major engagements culminating in Pickett's Charge. Illustrated and accompanied by maps, including map endpapers. 342 pages plus introductory matter. A handsome, well-preserved copy. Book appears clean and firmly bound with light age-related wear. Original dust jacket remains unusually attractive for a 1956 copy, retaining strong color and the original $4.95 price, with light edge and shelf wear consistent with age. Very Good in Very Good dust jacket. I would definitely make "FIRST EDITION, THIRD PRINTING 1956" prominent in the listing rather than just calling it a third printing—it distinguishes it from the much later Bonanza and Stackpole reissues.…
