Description

On the 12th of April, 1865, the Army of Northern Virginia marched to the field in front of Appomattox Court-House, stacked their arms, folded their colors, and walked empty handed to find their distant, blighted homes.

These are detailed and moving first-hand accounts from seven historically prominent witnesses to Robert E. Lee's surrender of the Army of Nothern Virginia at Appomattox.

Brilliantly narrated in norther and southern accets by a professional actor and gifted voice talent, this unique audiobook vividly brings to life the words and heartfelt sentiments of those who wrote these riveting accounts.

Includes accounts from:

Major-General Wesley Merritt, USA
Major-General John Gibbon, USA
Colonel Charles Marshall, Aide-de-cainp and Military Secretary to General R. E. Lee.
Brigadier-General E. P. Alexander, CSA
Lt. General James Longstreet, CSA
General Philip Sheridan, USA
Lt. General Ulysses S. Grant

Also included is "the famous telegram," which informed President Lincoln of Lee's surrender.

A must have for any Civil War buff!
