The Twentieth Maine
A Classic, the Story of Joshua Chamberlain and his Volunteer Regiment
Pullen. This book presents the fascinating story of Brig. Gen. Joshua Chamberlain – a college professor from Maine who volunteered to join the Union Army – and his 20th Maine Volunteer Infantry Regiment, from their fighting at Antietam, Fredericksburg and Chancellorsville through their heroic role in the pivotal Battle of Gettysburg (for which Chamberlain was awarded the Medal of Honor) and the surrender of Robert E. Lee’s army at Appomattox, Virginia. Includes maps. 352 pages, 17 B&W photographs and illustrations, 5½”x 8¼”, softcover.

Stand Firm Ye Boys From Maine
The 20th Maine of the Gettysburg Campaign. Desjardin. The battle for the southern slope of Little Round Top at Gettysburg is one of the most studied battles of the American Civil War. Here, you'll read 70 firsthand accounts told by veterans from both sides. 239 pages, 5¼"x 8", soft cover.

In The Hands of Providence
Joshua L. Chamberlain and the American Civil War. Trulock. This remarkable biography traces the life and times of Joshua L. Chamberlain, the professor-turned-soldier who led the 20th Maine Regiment to glory at Gettysburg, earned a battlefield promotion to brigadier general, was wounded six times during the course of the Civil War, and was chosen to accept the formal Confederate surrender at Appomattox. After the war, he went on to become governor of his home state and later became president of Bowdoin College. 592 pgs., 46 illustrations, 6"x 9¼", sfbd.

The Myth of Little Round Top
Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, Adelman. Did the 20th Maine Volunteer Infantry and Joshua Chamberlain really win the battle at Gettysburg? This radically-revisionist look at what is arguably the most well known small-unit action of the Civil War is certain to ignite controversy and debate among students of the battle. 128 pgs., 5½"x 8½", sfbd.

With a Flash of His Sword
The Writings of Major Holman S. Melcher, 20th Maine Infantry. William B. Styple, ed. It was a young officer named Holman S. Melcher who, "with a flash of his sword" precipitated the desperate counterattack that saved Little Round Top for the Union at the Battle of Gettysburg. These wartime letters trace the career of this unsung hero whose merit resulted in promotion through the ranks from corporal to major. 343 pgs., 60 B&W photos, maps and more. 6"x 9", hdbd.
