Blue & Gray Magazine's Special edition on the Antietam Battlefield is a first class read! I have visited the Antietam Battlefield ten times in my 66 years and can't wait to go again as soon as possible. This book is very informative and educational! I had relatives who fought at the Battle of Antietam in the Union Army and one was killed in action so this place has special meaning for me as it does with many Americans who had kin there. I recommend this book to all those who are obsessed with the Civil War, those who love history and all those wanting an introduction to the Bloodiest single day in American History where the "Landscape Turned Red".
Going to Antietam ? Then make sure you have this with you !!

This book is a "must have" for anyone who visits the Antietam National Battlefield. It has it all (for a tour of the field). Maps and analysis of the day's events. It also has the auto tour so you can understand what happened at each auto stop you make on the tour. It tells you where you are and what took place there. In each of these sections it even gives you quotes from those who survived the horrific fighting that took place on that fateful day on September 17, 1862. If your going to Antietam for the first time, or have been there a few times this is "THE" tour book to have with you. You can't go wrong, and at this price it's a steal.
