The authors show thorough knowledge of the people, weapons, tactics, and ambience of the Civil War. A veritable feast. The novel has a narrative drive and vigor that make the climactic battle scene a real masterpiece of its kind." - "Publishers Weekly "Gingrich and Forstchen write with authority and with sensitivity." - "St. Louis Post-Dispatch "["Gettysburg] is believable and beautifully written...every bit as good as Michael Sharra's "The Killer Angels. Not only do Gingrich and Forstchen bring the characters to life, and often horrible death, but they do so with memorable observations on the ways of war and vivid, technically accurate descriptions of frightful Civil War combat." - "The Courier Journal (Kentucky) "An eye-opener...filled with gore, smoke, heat of battle, and a surprise ending. The writing is vivid and clear. A ripping good read." - "Washington Times "Two respected historians, one horrific battle---and the challenging question of 'what if?' Sure to become a Civil War classic to be read and remembered." - W. E. B. Griffin, author of "Final Justice "Gettysburg is a creative, clever, and fascinating 'what if' novel that promises to excite and entertain America's legions of Civil War buffs." - James Carville "As historical fiction this stands beside "The Killer Angels. As an alternative history of Gettysburg, it stands alone. The mastery of operational history enables the authors to expand the story's scope. The larger-scale, more fluid battle of Gettysburg described is internally consistent, a logical consequence of the novel's challenging major premise. The narrativeis so clear that the action can be followed without maps. And the characters are sometimes heartbreakingly true to their historical originals." - Dennis Showalter, former president of the Society of Military Historians *** Quantity Available: 1. Category: Fiction; Historical; ISBN: 0312309376. ISBN/EAN: 9780312309374. Inventory No: 18040170.. 9780312309374, St. Martin's Press, 2004, 2.5, Good. 2006 Hardcover. Sanitized Ex-Library Edition, some Library markings, minor usage wear, clean & unmarked text and illustrations..  Feast your eyes on these amazing creatures before they disappear. This stampede of wild animals, from Chinese Alligator to Grevy's Zebra, are so rare, they're all endangered. David McLiman's bold and playful illustrations transform each letter into a work of art, graphically rendered with animal characteristics. Scales, horns, even insect wings transform the alphabet into animated life. Once you take this eye-opening safari, you'll never look at letters or animals with the same way again. A striking work of art and a zoological adventure, Gone Wild is sure to be loved by children and adults alike.----------------------------------------------------------------- Although organized as a conventional alphabet book, the letters here are far from ordinary. McLimans has created a black-and-white iconic representation of 26 endangered animals, and his art is striking. For example, the newt's eyes protrude slightly from the sides of N, while its tongue emerges from the lower point. An accompanying box on each page includes a small, stylized red-and-white image of the animal plus information about its class, habitat, range, and threats to its survival. ------------------------------------------- Age Range: 4 - 6 years Grade Level: 3 - 2 Series: Caldecott Honor Book Hardcover: 40 pages Publisher: Walker Childrens; 1 edition (September 5, 2006) Language: English ISBN-10: 0802795633 ISBN-13: 978-0802795632 UNSPSC Code: 55101500 Product Dimensions: 11.1 x 0.4 x 10 inches, 2.5<
