This review is from: Voices of the Civil War: Gettysburg - The Echoes of Courage and Cannons (Voices of the Civil War Series) (Audio Cassette)
Subtitled "The Echoes of Courage and Cannons," this audio book follows the Gettysburg Campaign from the aftermath of Chancellorsville through Brandy Station and the journey to Gettysburg, the famous battle there, and Lee's retreat back to Virginia. Eyewitness accounts are dramatically read, separated with brief introductions and accompanied by sound effects and a little music.

The events leading to Gettysburg are clearly explained in this way. Once the battle narratives strart, audio has its limitations. I missed having maps and diagrams to clarify the chain of events. Still, the stories were vivid and often exciting. I recommend this tape for those who are already familiar with the action at Gettysburg or to listen to alongside a book that diagrams the various parts of the battle.
