In the Pulitzer Prize winning civil war novel Killer Angels, Michael Shaara covers five days of the historic battle between the Northern and Southern United States at Gettysburg. Both the North and the South fought for freedom, although they did not have equivalent definitions of freedom. The North and the South were unwavering in their beliefs and their hope for a better United States, but what the two butted heads the most on was slavery. The South was a primarily agrarian region which relied heavily on the agriculture of crops like cotton and sugarcane, both of which required intense manual labor, unlike the North who was more so industrialized; however, as William Preston said, it was not cotton that was “the south’s king” but it was slavery that made them so prosperous. The South relied on slavery because having many workers to tend to these cash crops without having to pay them saved farmers and plantation owner’s money that they could use to buy more slaves that put out more work leading to more land for more crops, or to have more money to pay their taxes. Many Southerners like William Preston thought that owning other people was their divine right as white men. The Civil War was started over the North and South’s conflicting views on whether they had the “civil” right to own or not own slaves. The Northern and Southern states developed themselves much differently than one another because of their agrarian versus industrialized economy. As the states developed they

The sniper brushes with death again when he throws his revolver down without thinking and it goes off. Bullets make a war very deadly, as they are much more precise than earlier and much simpler weapons (such as swords and muskets).

The book The killer Angels by Michael Shaara depicts an accurate picture of what it's like to fight in the Civil War. Shaara not only describes the horrifying experience the characters had to endure during the Battle of Gettysburg, but also the motives behind the character's acts and decisions. The majority of the book is spent describing Joshua Chamberlain, James Longstreet, and Robert E. Lee. Longstreet and Lee fought on the Confederate side and Chamberlain fought for the Union. One of the conflicts in the novel involves Longstreet’s spy and Lee. Lee isn't sure whether to believe Longstreet’s shady spy that claims the Union army is moving close to the Confederates. The book was made very interesting by having characters fighting for opposing

American Sniper by Chris Kyle, is one of the most accurate depictions of the life in special

The sniper was inhaling a cigarette on a rooftop when someone launched a fire at him from the opposite side of the street. He managed to escape the shot successfully without any injury or bruises. The sniper also managed to kill two other free staters after that, one man and one woman.

The Killer Angel, by Michael Shaara, is the story of the Battle of Gettysburg told through the eyes of the officers who were there. The story begins with a Shakespeare-quoting, quirky spy named Harrison rushing to tell General Longstreet and General Lee the news- the Union army is on the move and is rapidly approaching. Harrison first meets up with Longstreet, who is skeptical about believing him, since General Stuart’s cavalry went out a few days ago, and there has been no word from him at all. After a few moments, it hits him- General Stuart is joyriding. Enraged, the resigned Longstreet brings Harrison to Lee, who is not feeling well and is resting. After hearing Harrison’s report, Lee gives orders to move to Gettysburg at first light and

The sniper was scared to shoot the other person. “He was frightened back to his sense but the shock. His nerves strayed,the cloud of fear scattered from his mind and he laughed.” Being a sniper you are supposed to be able to not show emotion, but the sniper did. He was somewhat nervous and maybe scared, but then he build up the courage to fire. He fired and all signs of emotions and fear vanished it was

Almost immediately there was a report and a bullet pierced the center of the cap.”(pg 3 O’ flaherty) The IRA sniper did this to trick the other sniper into thinking that he killed him but if the IRA sniper wasn't careful he could've got killed. The IRA sniper put his good hand over the wall so it looked like he was shot but that was his only good are and if the other sniper was to shot that arm for some reason the IRA sniper wouldn't be able to finish his plan. For his plan to work he had to make it look like he was really shot. “The sniper slanted the rifle forward. The cap clipped down into the street , then catching the middle the sniper dropped his left hand and let it hang lifelessly. After a few moments he let the rifle drop to the street. Then he sank to the roof dragging his hand with him.”( pg 3 O'flaherty) This made the IRA sniper daring because he had to drop his good gun off the roof to make it look so real. After that there was no going back from his plan. With his smaller gun he only had one shot to get it right because if he missed the other sniper would know he is still alive, but his good gun would be at the bottom of the building and he would be in big trouble. The plan the IRA sniper has was pretty daring because if his plan didn't work out he could've died much easier.

This explains how this was a character vs character type of thing because they were both shooting at each other with powerful rifles, leaving one of them weak because one sniper shot the other sniper, leaving them weak. Another reason why this is a character vs character is because one of the sniper brought back up. “Just then an armoured car came across the bridge and advanced slowly up the street” (19). A strong and powerful vehicle appeared out of nowhere. “It was an enemy car” (19). One of the snipers had a team with them to take out the other sniper and the other sniper knew he couldn't do anything about it because it was an armoured car and he knows his sniper can’t do anything.

The Phantom, just like the Phoenix myth appears, disappears and again reappears; born only when the prior Phantom ceases to exist. The readers are quite aware of the fact that under the dark purple outfit and the skull mask there lurked a white man, the man with white skin and black mask. And though there was the mysterious Anglo credit “Lee Falk” on the top of each Phantom comics, the signature of the author Lee Falk was unremarkable and the readers didn’t know him as a person. What the readers do know is the mysterious exotic Phantomic setting: “darkest part of Africa with its big games, the witch doctors and the almost naked black natives” (Friese n.p).
