MacKinlay Kantor's Long Remember is the first realistic novel about the Civil War. Originally published in the 1930s, and out of print since the 50s, this book received rave reviews from the New York Times Book Review and was a main selection of the Literary Guild. It is the account of the Battle of Gettysburg, as viewed by a pacifist who comes to accept the nasty necessity of combat, and lives an intense and skewed romance along the way.

A fascinating read. While there's a central and unrelated story that's of some interest, this book is significant because it recreates the battle of Gettysburg from the perspective of a Gettysburg resident, his friends, and his neighbors. It ain't pretty.
And an oddity: It's clear to me that I've read a fairly extensive excerpt from this novel somewhere else. Does someone know where? If so, please leave a note. Thanks. ( )
