Has anyone noticed that the Afterword in Killer Angels lists twelve
characters on the Confederate side and only three for the Union. One of
those three is not George Meade.
Not to start a second Civil War, but what does that say about the writer and
about George Meade? What other Union personalties deserve more prominence,
besides Buster Kilrain?
I would say that Col. George Sharpe of the Army of the Potomac's Bureau of
Military Information should have been included in the story and the list of
heroes, except that no one had any idea who he was when this book was
written.
