Fredericksburg was one of the most tragic battles of the Civil War. No sector was more hotly contested than the area held by Longstreet’s troops and known as Marye’s Heights. While the heights seemed impregnable to the charging Union troops, Longstreet’s men took heavy casualties and many times felt they were on the point of being overrun. The latest Battleground America volume covers the actions, units and personalities of this key section of the Fredericksburg battlefield and describes in detail the area as it was in 1862 and the national park that occupies the site today.
