Along the Lines of Devotion by James Smith

The fighting on July 1, 1863 built the foundation to what would become known as the bloodiest battle fought on American soil. Yet, it remains one of the most overlooked locations ofthe battlefield. Cast into the shadows of much more scenic locations, such as Little Round Top, Devil's Den, and the Wheatfield, it is easy to drive right through one of the most iconic locations of the battlefield. This comprehensive and reader-friendly narrative works to shine some light onto a portion of the battlefield that is so often overlooked. Beginning on June 9 and taking the reader through to July 1, James Smith II goes through great lengths to explain the movement of troops, human interest stories, humorous accounts, and detailed descriptions of the men present for the battle, in a close examination of the harrowing deeds it took to preserve a nation during the American Civil War.
James Smith visited the Gettysburg National Military Park for the first time, when he was thirteen years old. Since then, another thirteen years have passed and he has provided information for numerous newspaper articles and internet blogs. Smith spends much of his free time studying the conduct of the battle and the participants in it. He also conducts several battlefield walks per year and telling the stories of the men who fought.
