Hardcover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. 1st Edition. Fine condition black boards with gold spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes Dedication and Acknowledgments. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs. "The Civil War is the American Iliad. Lincoln, Stonewall Jackson, Grant, and Lee endure as heroic ideals, as stirring to our national memory as were the legendary Achilles and Hector to the world of the ancient Greeks. Within the story of our Iliad one battle stands above all others: Gettysburg. Millions visit the Gettysburg battlefield each year to walk those fields and hills where Joshua Chamberlain made his legendary stand and Pickett went down to defeat, forever becoming a symbol of the heroic Lost Cause. As the years passed, and the scars healed, the debate, rather than drifting away, has intensified. It is the battle that has become the great "what if?" of American history and the center of a dream-scape where Confederate banners crown the heights above the town. The year is 1863, and General Robert E. Lee and his Army of Northern Virginia are poised to attack the North and claim the victory that would end the brutal conflict. Launching his men into a vast, sweeping operation, of which the town of Gettysburg is but one small part of the plan, General Lee, acting as he did at Chancellorsville, Second Manassas, and Antietam, displays the audacity of old. He knows he has but one more good chance to gain ultimate victory, for after two years of war the relentless power of an industrialized North is wearing the South down. Lee's lieutenants and the men in the ranks, imbued with this renewed spirit of the offensive, embark on the Gettysburg Campaign that many dream "should have been." The soldiers in the line, Yank and Reb, knew as well that this would be the great challenge, the decisive moment that would decide whether a nation would die or be created, and both sides were ready, willing to lay down their lives for their Cause. An action-packed and painstakingly researched masterwork, Gettysburg stands as the first book in a trilogy to tell the story of how history could have unfolded, how a victory for Lee would have changed the destiny of the nation forever. In the great tradition of The Killer Angels and Jeff Shaara's bestselling Civil War trilogy, this is a novel of true heroism and glory in America's most trying hour." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.…

Some page soiling and rippling. Newton Leroy Gingrich (born Newton Leroy McPherson; June 17, 1943) is an American politician and author from the state of Georgia who served as the 50th Speaker of the United States House of Representatives from 1995 to 1999. He represented Georgia's 6th congressional district from 1979 until 1999. Gingrich won election to the United States House of Representatives in November 1978, the first Republican in the history of Georgia's 6th congressional district to do so. He served as House Minority Whip, and Speaker of the House. Gingrich was a major leader in the Republican victory in the 1994 congressional election. In 1995, Time named him "Man of the Year". As House Speaker, Gingrich oversaw passage of welfare reform and a capital gains tax cut. The poor showing by Republicans in the 1998 Congressional elections, and pressure from Republican colleagues, resulted in Gingrich's resignation from the speakership on November 6, 1998. Since leaving the House, Gingrich has worked as a political consultant. He has written or co-authored 27 books. Robert Gilliland Beckel (born November 15, 1948) is an American political analyst and pundit, and a former political operative. He is a former analyst and commentator on Fox News. He had previously been a commentator on Fox News where he co-hosted The Five until he was released in 2015 after being absent for several months while recovering from back surgery. After departing Fox News in 2015, Beckel became a commentator for CNN. On January 16, 2017, he returned to Fox News as a co-host of The Five. Beckel was the campaign manager for Walter Mondale's 1984 presidential campaign. During that campaign he became known as the man who effectively wrapped the Wendy's slogan "Where's the beef?" around Gary Hart, Mondale's opponent for the Democratic nomination. In late 1984 he formed the consulting firm Bob Beckel & Associates, or BBA, a lobbying firm that was succeeded in 1985 by BeckelCowan. In 2002 Beckel managed the campaign of Alan Blinken, the Democratic nominee for United States Senate in Idaho, until he resigned after being targeted for extortion by a prostitute. In 2010, he made a brief appearance as himself on the Season 8 premiere of TV series 24 in a mock debate with fellow Fox News Analyst Monica Crowley. Bestselling authors Newt Gingrich and William R. Forstchen launched a new epic adventure series about World War II in the Pacific, with their book "Pearl Harbor" A Novel of December 8th, 1941," which instantly rocketed to the "New York Times" bestseller list. Gingrich and Forstchen's now critically acclaimed approach, which they term "active history," examines how a change in but one decision might have profoundly altered American history. In "Pearl Harbor" they explored how history might have been changed if Admiral Yamamoto had directly led the attack on that fateful day, instead of remaining in Japan. Building on that promise, "Days of Infamy" starts minutes after the close of Pearl Harbor, as both sides react to the monumental events triggered by the presence of Admiral Yamamoto. In direct command of the six carriers of the attacking fleet, Yamamoto decides to launch a fateful "third-wave attack" on the island of Oahu, and then keeps his fleet in the area to hunt down the surviving American aircraft carriers, which by luck and fate were not anchored in the harbor on that day. Historians have often speculated about what might have transpired from legendary "matchups" of great generals and admirals. In this story of the aftermath of Pearl Harbor, the notorious gambler Yamamoto is pitted against the equally legendary American admiral Bill Halsey in a battle of wits, nerve, and skill. "Days of Infamy" recounts this alternative history from a multitude of viewpoints---from President Roosevelt, Prime Minister Churchill, and the two great admirals, etc. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated].…
