　　American history has never seen a more tumultuous or more

significant year than 1863. During this crucial time the tide of

the Civil War turned inexorably from the Confederacy to the Union,

with momentous c***equences that are still being felt today. It was

a year of upheaval unparalleled in our national experience: twelve

months of searing brutality and ennobling sacrifice, 365 stirring,

dramatic days that changed our country forever.

Integrating the events of this epochal year into a panoramic

narrative, Joseph E. Stevens presents a grand portrait of the Union

and Confederacy at war. He captures two nati*** struggling to

define the American experiment and create a new understanding of

*** on the bloody battlefields of Stones River,

Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, Vicksburg, Chickamauga, and

Chattanooga. He also traces the astonishing political, economic,

and social transformati*** that marked 1863 as a watershed.

1863 features a remarkable cast of characters: larger-than-life

leaders like Abraham Lincoln and Jefferson Davis; charismatic and

controversial military commanders like Robert E. Lee, Ulysses S.

Grant, James Longstreet, Joseph Hooker, Stonewall Jackson, Ge***e

Armstrong Custer, and Nathan Bedford Forrest; avaricious young

capitalists like Andrew Carnegie, John D. Rockefeller, and J. P.

M***an; war-haunted writers like Herman Melville, Louisa May

Alcott, and Walt Whitman; war-inspired painters like Winslow Homer

and Conrad Wise Chapman.

Here, too, is a host of less well known but no less fascinating

personalities: soldiers and civilians, slaves and slave owners,

farmers and city dwellers, politicians and profiteers, artistocrats

and refugees. Their stories--humorous and harrowing, inspiring and

appalling--make 1863 not just a sweeping re-creation of events but

a gripping human tale as well.

1863 is popular history at its best--vivid, vibrant, and

immensely readable. Written with dramatic intensity and impassioned

humanity, it is a thrilling account of the pivotal year of the war

that remains the central historical event in the life of our

nation.
