About This Item
New York: Random House, 2002. First Edition. Hardcover. Very good/very good. 222 pages. Map, small crease in rear DJ flap. Bookplate signed by the author. In this intensely intriguing story of murder on the Civil War battlefield at Antietam, a National Park Service archaeologist finds out the truth about what happened and why the wrong man is buried in a small New England town. On a ridge overlooking Burnside Bridge--the focus of the Battle of Antietam--souvenir hunters find the unmarked grave of an unknown Union officer. Don Spaniel, an archaeologist in the National Park Service, is called in to examine the remains. He soon discovers that the officer was murdered and that his identification disk could not possibly belong to him, since its rightful owner is buried elsewhere. So who was this officer? Where did he come from? And why?
