D. Scott Hartwig, The Battle of Antietam Series, 3 Vols. 1st ed, Signed on Bookplates

Description

D. Scott Hartwig’s series of books about the Battle of Antietam and the Maryland Campaign of 1862 – The Battle of Antietam and the Maryland Campaign of 1862; To Antietam Creek”; “I Dread the Thought of the Place” – have quickly become scarce and highly desirable on the rare book market.

Our customers will know that the two massive volumes by Hartwig on the September 17, 1862, Battle of Antietam represent the most complete account of that crucial campaign ever produced. The two narrative volumes cover with intense detail Lee’s movement into Maryland, the battles at South Mountain, and the battle at Sharpsburg.

We offer the two more recent volumes along with Hartwig’s 1990 bibliography, making the most comprehensive collection of Antietam volumes available anywhere – a 3-volume set!

The two large books, like other large volumes, are subject to hard wear when read and repeatedly consulted. A set in virtually “as new” condition is almost impossible to find.

Near Fine. All volumes signed on bookplates
