In September 1862 the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia and the Union Army of the Potomac conducted one of the truly great campaigns of the Civil War. At South Mountain; Harpers Ferry; and Antietam; North and South clashed in engagements whose magnitude and importance would earn this campaign a distinguished place in American military history. The siege of Harpers Ferry produced the largest surrender of U.S. troops in the nation’s history until World War II; while the day-long battle at Antietam on September 17 still holds the distinction of being the single bloodiest day of combat in American history.

2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. A struggle for freedom .By Sonja VossThis is the book I've wanted for many years and now it has been written. I am not yet finished reading it but will make it last as long as possible. I have read many Russian authors ; both fiction and fact and I feel drawn to the people and their suffering. The horror of those who caused this needs to be known by all who love freedom and have a place in their heart for these unique people.Thank you Mr. Ogorodnikov !0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. A modern day hero.By Michael CassadyIt is possible for one person with tenacity and courage to change the status quo of millions of people under the crushing regime of totalitarianism. The human spirit that is nourished by faith in Jesus Christ can rise above insurmountable odds. Such is the remarkable story of Alexander Ogorodnikov and his struggle for religious freedom in Russia. If you want to read about a modern day hero...this is a must read.
