Confederates: A masterful Civil War epic by the Booker Prize-winning author of Schindler's Ark
Autor Thomas Keneallyen Limba Engleză Paperback – 17 feb 1994
'Deserves comparison with the great war novels of the last hundred years' Observer
Shortlisted for the Booker Prize, Thomas Keneally's widely acclaimed classic novel of the American Civil War.
As the Civil War tears America apart, General Stonewall Jackson leads a troop of Confederate soldiers on a long trek towards the battle they believe will be a conclusive victory.
Through their hopes, fears and losses, Keneally searingly conveys both the drama and mundane hardship of war, and brings to life one of the most emotive episodes in American history.
