On September 17, 1862, the Union Army of the Potomac met the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia next to Antietam Creek near Sharpsburg, MD during the American Civil War. This was a missed opportunity for Union Major General George B. McLellan to destroy Confederate General Robert E. Lee's forces. During the battle, thousands of brave men fought and died for the cause they believed so strongly in, making this the single bloodiest day in American history with 23,000 casualties of which 3,600 died. This account follows a fictitious artillery captain who represents these men. We need to recognize that the participants on both sides were humans, full of emotions fighting for their lives, and the lives of their comrades, and they are not just names in dusty history books. Many had their lives cut short by this terrible war. While a work of fiction, this work strives to depict the action of a Union artillery battery as historically accurate as possible. Two of the author's ancestors fought with the Army of the Potomac during this battle and one was severely wounded, two others fought in other theaters of the war. This story is dedicated to them, and all who fought in this war, regardless of the color of their uniform.
