About this series
In the thrilling sequel to Road to Antietam, Tom E. Hicklin's debut novel, the American Civil War enters its third year, and the men and boys of the Eighth Ohio Volunteer Infantry quickly learn that the devastating events of the Battle of Antietam were just the beginning. The battles get larger and the fighting more brutal, and the casualty rates rise as both sides come to realize that they are pitted in a desperate conflict that will define the future of the United States.
In every major battle of the Eastern Theater, the Eighth is there. At places like Fredericksburg, Chancellorsville, Gettysburg, The Wilderness, and Spotsylvania, they fight to win…and survive.
Meanwhile, on the home front, the losses take their toll. Families are torn apart, people are pushed to the brink by grief and despair, and the Galloway family is no exception. Illness and death hang over the family like a shroud.
And through it all, one young man battles grief, guilt, and temptation as he struggles to stay alive long enough to make it home.

Galloway Series, Book 1 278 Pages In his remarkable work of historical fiction, Road to Antietam, author Tom Hicklin brings readers the story of two brothers and the life-altering events they experience amidst the harrowing backdrop of the American Civil War. Daniel and Christopher Galloway are merely teenagers when they join the Eighth Ohio Volunteer Infantry at the beginning of the Civil War. From there, we follow them from their days at training camp to the many skirmishes they participate in, through to the Battle of Antietam. Along the way, both brothers suffer from illness, exposure, hunger, and extreme fear, and they soon come to realize that the deadly war they've chosen to fight has nothing to do with glory and banners, and everything to do with hardship and depravity. In this blisteringly realistic tale, it becomes apparent that the overall, larger picture does not always reflect the singular human experience. This is a story of two brothers. This is a story of suffering and hope and adversity and compassion. This a story of what it's like to experience war and its devastating aftermath.
