The Second Day at Gettysburg, July 2, 1863-From Little Round Top to Cemetery Ridge

This vividly detailed Civil War history reveals many of the incredible true stories behind the legendary sites of the Gettysburg battlefield.Having unexpectedly been thrust into command of the Army of the Potomac only three days earlier, General George Gordon Meade was caught by a much harsher surprise when the Confederate Army of North Virginia launched a bold invasion northward. Outside the small college town of Gettysburg, the lead elements of Meade’s army were suddenly under attack. By nightfall, they were forced to take a lodgment on high ground south of town. There, they fortified-and waited. "Don’t give an inch, boys!" one Federal commander told his men.The next day, July 2, 1863, would be one of the Civil War’s bloodiest. With names that have become legendary-Little Round Top, Devil’s Den, the Peach Orchard, the Wheatfield, Culp’s Hill-the second day at Gettysburg encompasses some of the best-known engagements of the Civil War. Yet those same stories have also become shrouded in mythology and misunderstanding. In Don’t Give an Inch, Emerging Civil War historians Chris Mackowski and Daniel T. Davis peel back the layers to share the real and often-overlooked stories of that fateful summer day.
