Product Description The battle of Gettysburg remains one of the most-studied battles in American history. However, few authors have ever used military miniatures, wargames, dioramas, and scale model soldiers and battle scenes as the means of fully illustrating a sweeping overview of the battle, campaign, key personalities, and the aftermath, including Abraham Lincoln's Gettysburg Address. A team of gamers and dioramists from across North America and Europe have joined multiple-award-winning wargamer and author Scott Mingus to present more than 200 color photos of their finest works related to Gettysburg. This is aimed at teenagers but should satisfy most Gettysburg buffs of all ages, as well as gamers and modelers. From the Author This is the full-color second edition.
