(John) Caleb Garven - Killer Angels

(John) Caleb Garven - I chose to read Killer Angels by Michael Shaara, because I read the pre-quel to it, Gods and Generals by Jeff Shaara. I greatly enjoyed Killer Angels, it focused on the battle of Gettysburg, from the perspective of two union soldiers and two confederate soldiers. It was a really interesting ret-telling of Gettysburg, because it had different perspectives in the book, and tried to accurately portray the thoughts of the characters.
