Info:
SECOND MANASSAS, as it was known to the South (or Second Bull Run, as it was called by the Northern forces), was fought from the 28th to the 30th of August 1862 in Virginia. USA, the climactic infantry and artillery duels taking place upon the exact Virginia fields where, a year earlier, the North had suffered a humiliating defeat in the American Civil War's first major battle.
''Unto This Hour,'' Tom Wicker's powerful and meticulous book about the battle, translates such neatness into the doubts, rashness, confessions, blood and blunderings on both sides which Second Manassas, like every battle, was. Rarely has a fictional account of a famous battle worked so closely or so scrupulously from all that survives through maps, records, landscapes, battlefields, the memories of those who survived. Even the words attributed to historical personages, chiefly the contending commanders and their brigadiers, are drawn from the printed recollections of those who heard them spoken.
It brought together a remarkable group of the Civil War's leading figures; the pious and inscrutable Stonewall Jackson, the doughty and cocksure Pope, others include General Lee, Longhurst, Stuart, Porter, McDowell and off-stage, Lincoln and McClellan.
