Killer Angels

The book Killer Angels, it’s a good book for people who like wars or would like to know more about the Civil War. The Civil War was on the east coast of the United States on June 29th 1863 thru June 1914. This book sets the historical time line of the events that took place during the war. The Killer Angels author Michael Shaara won the Pulitzer Prize for his realistic historical novel.
If you would like to learn about the Civil War, you would want to read this book because of its realistic descriptions of the events that took place during the war. If you thought you knew everything about the civil war, you would learn a great deal more about the details and actual events and individuals who made these decisions during this war. This was and still is a major historical event in our history.
We learned a great deal on how and what was required to fight a war of this caliber. I feel this book is a required or must read for anyone who wants to know about the military. I do not recommend reading this book if you don’t know much about the military, because there are words that you won’t understand.
One of the main characters General Longstreet was the biggest General for the Confederate Army, and Chainberlin was general for the Union Army. You will learn about both sides of the civil war, because the author Michael Shaata writes about each side in separate chapters as the events occur. There are battles throughout the book, which is one of the reasons this book is so entertaining. The book starts out with a spy tiring to get though a picket line trying to tell his army,”that their were 10,000 army units moving.” Then further in the book it discusses the battle at Gettysburg.
I feel everyone should read this book, because it really gives a person a better perspective about our county beginning.. This is a good book to read if you would want to know about the civil war.
