    Joseph A. Altsheler / Joseph AAltsheler
    A young man was shaving. His feet rested upon a broad plank embedded in mud, and the tiny glass in which he saw himself hung upon a wall of raw, reeking earth.

  • The Star of Gettysburg
    Joseph A. Altsheler / Joseph AAltsheler

    Joseph A. Altsheler / Joseph AAltsheler

'There are hills on the right and in the center, covered with thick, green forest, and on the left, where the land lies low, the forest is thick and green too, although I think I catch a fl...

    The first youth rode to the crest of the hill, and, still sitting on his horse, examined the country in the south with minute care through a pair of powerful glasses.

    Joseph A. Altsheler / Joseph AAltsheler
    John Scott and Philip Lannes walked together down a great boulevard of Paris. The young American’s heart was filled with grief and anger.
