Antietam

The first installment of James Reasoner's American Civil War Battle series has been described as "A lively, suspensful yarn." and "A detailed work of historical fiction written by a gifted author." "The reader can almost feel the heat of the battle." In the third book of this series, Antietam, as commanders of North and South manoeuvre across the landscape of northern Virginia, the war comes within view of the Brannon family farm.

The din of drilling soldiers overcomes the quiet country seat and another son answers the call to arms.

A gifted horseman, Mac soon finds himself on one of the greatest adventures of the war.

He is united with his older brother Will when Jackson's triumphant troops arrive to blunt the Federal force approaching Richmond. and in the wake of this, love blossoms on the Brannon homestead.

When the Federals intercept the Rebels near Antietam Creek, the two brothers are brought together in the bloodiest trial of the war thus far and the air is thick with shot and shell.
