The Battle of Antietam, waged on September 17, 1862, marked the bloodiest single day's fighting in American history. Five days later, President Abraham Lincoln issued the preliminary Emancipation Proclamation. This book brings you face-to-face as never before with the people and events that shaped this epic event. These history travel guides each come with the promise of a walk through the history of a particular city, region, or battlefield. Throughout these books the readers are constantly provided with information they need to re-live the history of a famous battle or period of history. Eac |
