Long remember by 12702183|MacKinlay Kantor book cover

πŸ“˜ Long remember

"Long Remember was the first realistic novel about the Civil War since The Red Badge of Courage. Originally published in 1934, this book received rave reviews from The New York Times Book Review, and was a main selection of the Literary Guild. It is the account of the Battle of Gettysburg, as viewed by a pacifist who comes to accept the nasty necessity of combat. Kantor has also interwoven love and lust into this remarkable tale of passion, heroes, and a bloody battle."--BOOK JACKET.
