A Patriotic Destiny: From Lancaster to Perryville (Hardcover) (ISBN-13: 9781456710569)

The greatest catastrophe in the United States was that of the American Civil War. As the years have passed since this great disaster, much of the truth has been lost. A Patriotic Destiny will enlighten the reader as to the realities of this time period. It is based on actual letters and newspaper articles written just before and during the Civil War. The reader will travel with the 79th Pennsylvania Infantry Regiment as they march through Kentucky and Tennessee in their quest to save the Union and defend the Constitution. You will feel their fatigue as they march, their boredom and anxiety as they wait for orders and their fear as they go into battle. Most of all, you will feel their worry about their families and their longing to be with them. By reading this book you will be reminded of the devastation this country went through in order to be reunited once again.
