| Annotation |
Dunker Church is one of the most iconic structures of the American Civil War and one of the most notable houses of worship in American military history. On September 17, 1862, during the battle of Antietam, two mighty armies grappled across the rolling hills, fields, and woodlots surrounding Sharpsburg, Maryland. The ensuing combat killed, wounded, or left missing more than 23,000 Union and Confederate soldiers. Ironically, the small whitewashed building dedicated to peace, equality, and the brotherhood of man stood in the epicenter of the bloodiest day in American history. This is a must-read for anyone interested in the full story of the monumental battle and the community who lived through it. Adult.
