The General's Double

The General's Double: A Story Of The Army Of The Potomac is a historical fiction novel written by Charles King. The book is set during the American Civil War and follows the story of a young soldier named Frank, who bears an uncanny resemblance to his commanding officer, General Hugh Kilpatrick. When Kilpatrick is captured by the Confederates, Frank is recruited to impersonate him in order to gather intelligence and potentially secure his release. As Frank navigates the dangers of war and deception, he must also confront his own feelings of guilt and loyalty to his fellow soldiers. The General's Double offers a gripping and emotional portrayal of the realities of war and the sacrifices made by those who fought in it.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
