The stone bridge on the southern flank of the Antietam battlefield became one of the Civil War's most powerful symbols of courage and sacrifice. The actions, units and personalities of this crucial sector of the battlefield are described in detail, accompanied by a full description of the bridge area as it was in 1862 and as it is today.
Burnside's Bridge was a great book. It showed the importance of burnsides bridge in the war. John Canaan wrote this book using a lot of imagery and detail. Not only did he describe everything well, he had supporting maps and pictures depicting the scene and what was going on during the battles. Another excellent thing about this book is the language, it was written where even young children can read the book for school and understand it.
