Put a face and a story to thirty of the men who fought to preserve the Union. The first Confederate invasion of the North in the fall of 1862 led to a series of engagements known as the Maryland Campaign. Though best remembered for its climax, there was desperate fighting at both South Mountain and Harpers Ferry prior to the bloodletting at Antietam Creek. These two battles in particular were a desperate affair of bloody attacks and determined defense. In this work are the images of thirty Union soldiers, published here for the first time, who struggled up the slopes of South Mountain or sheltered from Confederate cannon at Harpers Ferry. Join battlefield guides Matthew Borders and Joseph Stahl as they introduce you to these men, their battles and their stories.
