events that followed."Washington Post Book World
Winner of the Fletcher Pratt Award for Best Nonfiction Book about the Civil War
The Civil War battle waged on September 17, 1862, at Antietam Creek, Maryland, was one of the
bloodiest in the nation's history: on this single day, the battle claimed nearly 23,000 casualties.
In Landscape Turned Red, the renowned historian Stephen Sears draws on a remarkable cache
of diaries, dispatches, and letters to recreate the vivid drama of Antietam as experienced not only by
its leaders but also by its soldiers, both Union and Confederate. Combining brilliant military analysis
with narrative history of enormous power, Landscape Turned Red is the definitive work on this
climactic and bitter struggle.
Stephen W. Sears is the author of many acclaimed books on the Civil war including Chancellorsville and Gettysburg. He has been called "the finest and most provocative Civil War historian writing today." (Chicago Tribune). A former editor at American Heritage, he lives in Connecticut.
Barrett Whitener has recorded audiobooks since 1992. His recordings have won several awards, including the Audio Publishers Association's Audie and four Earphones Awards. AudioFile cited him as among "the best voices of the century." He lives in Washington, D.C.
