À propos de cet audio

The New York Times best-selling prequel to the Pulitzer Prize-winning classic The Killer Angels.

In this brilliantly written epic novel, Jeff Shaara traces the lives, passions, and careers of the great military leaders from the first gathering clouds of the Civil War. Here is Thomas “Stonewall” Jackson, a hopelessly by-the-book military instructor and devout Christian who becomes the greatest commander of the Civil War; Winfield Scott Hancock, a captain of quartermasters who quickly establishes himself as one of the finest leaders of the Union army; Joshua Chamberlain, who gives up his promising academic career and goes on to become one of the most heroic soldiers in American history; and Robert E. Lee, never believing until too late that a civil war would ever truly come to pass. Profound in its insights into the minds and hearts of those who fought in the war, Gods and Generals creates a vivid portrait of the soldiers, the battlefields, and the tumultuous times that forever shaped the nation.

Ce que les critiques en disent

"Powerful.... Though the story of the Civil War has been told many times, this is the rare version that conveys what it must have felt like." (Chicago Sun-Times)

"Compelling...a work of vivid drama and skill." (The Dallas Morning News)

"[Jeff] Shaara’s beautifully sensitive novel delves deeply in the empathetic realm of psycho-history, where enemies do not exist - just mortal men forced to make crucial decisions and survive on the same battlefield." (San Francisco Chronicle)

This is going down as one of my favourite audible reads. After reading Gettysburg I decided to try this and it didn't disappoint. I would highly recommend it.

This is well-written and gets you right inside the character's heads. It brings a great insight into the time and the fallacy of supposed great leaders.

Great read

The author is very much twisting to make the south the heroes of this tale. Almost making Lee to be an abolishinist. It is interesting, but especially around Jackson's death it goes on way too long.
