More about the book

Set during the pivotal Siege of Petersburg in June 1864, the narrative follows the Union's ambitious plan to tunnel beneath Confederate defenses, spearheaded by General Ambrose Burnside and the 48th Pennsylvania regiment. Despite the strategic advantage this approach promised, the outcome defied expectations, leading to a remarkable Confederate victory. The book explores themes of military ingenuity, the unpredictability of war, and the intense stalemate that characterized this crucial moment in the Civil War.
