Killer Angels
by Michael Shaara | Grades 9-12
Rich with well-researched facts, Killer Angels draws students not only into the battle of Gettysburg, but also into the lives of the people involved in the battle. Michael Shaara's writing focuses on the humanity of the leaders, their concern for their troops, and their cameraderie in the midst of heated combat. The book is just as much a biography of the people involved as it is a recounting of the events.
