"One Wednesday in September 1862, a few hundred Georgians held up an entire Federal corps for more than half a day and changed the course of the battle of Antietam. Burnside's Bridge details this story, one of the most dramatic of the Civil War." --Perry D. Jamieson, author of Death in September: The Antietam Campaign

"Burnside's Bridge highlights a significant but neglected aspect of Antietam that still ranks as the bloodiest day in American history. The author's scholarship is sound, his grasp of tactics sure, and his writing vivid, making Burnside's Bridge both a good read and good history." --Edward G. Longacre, author of The Cavalry at Gettysburg and Army of Amateurs

First thoroughly researched study of the struggle for Burnside Bridge
