[Jeff] Shaara returns to the U.S. Civil War in this first book of a new trilogy. . . . This novel is meticulously researched and brings a vivid reality to the historical events depicted.”—Library Journal NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER Spring 1862. The Confederate Army in the West teeters on the brink of collapse. General Albert Sidney Johnston is forced to abandon the critical city of Nashville and rally his troops in defense of the Memphis and Charleston Railroad. Hot on Johnston’s trail are two of the Union’s best generals: Ulysses Grant and Don Carlos Buell. If their combined forces can crush Johnston’s army and capture the railroad, the war in the West likely will be over. There’s just one problem: Johnston knows of the Union plans and is poised to launch an audacious surprise attack on Grant’s encampment—a small settlement in southwestern Tennessee anchored by a humble church named Shiloh. Drawing on meticulous research, Jeff Shaara dramatizes the key decisions of the commanders on both sides of the conflict—and brings to life the junior officers, conscripts, and enlisted men who gave their all for the cause. With stunning immediacy, Shaara takes us inside the maelstrom of Shiloh as no novelist has before. “Brilliant . . . riveting . . . a work to be embraced.”—Bookreporter Includes a preview of Jeff Shaara’s next Civil War novel, A Chain of Thunder.

This book was released on 2017-06-28. Blaze of Glory available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. First published in 1950, this book from the author of Light in the Sky tells the story of a beautiful, imperious, thoroughly spoiled young woman; her ambitions, loves and jealousies, all magnificently displayed against a panorama of New York society and theatrical life in the 1880s. Willow Cleveland left her husband and came to New York determined to be the star of the stage. Backed by the unlimited wealth of an admiring millionaire, she achieved her ambition only to find that it took more to make a great actress than a mere desire to bask in a blaze of glory. Meanwhile her dynamic young husband came to New York determined to break her spirit and bring her back to his home. And a theatrical producer, who was clever enough to see the talent beneath the willful surface, was equally determined to make her into a truly great actress. How Willow Cleveland’s husband fought a financial battle with her rich admirer and fell in love with his niece; how Willow learned the hard way to humble her pride and work for success in the theatre is the theme of this brilliant new novel, set against a background of gaslights and hansom cabs, of dinners at Delmonico’s and tempests and triumphs behind the footlights.
