Holden, Stephen. "Review/Film; When War Was All Glory and Bands and Death", The New York Times, 8 de octubre de 1993. Entrada 22 de octubre de 2007. "Ronald F. Maxwell's four-hour cinematic re-creation of the battle that was the turning point of the Civil War has a stately tone and meticulous attention to historical detail that make it feel more like an epic documentary than a dramatic film. "Gettysburg," adapted by Mr. Maxwell from Michael Shaara's novel "The Killer Angels," limits itself to the first three days of July 1863, when 150,000 soldiers threw themselves into a battle in which more than a quarter of them became casualties."
Holden, Stephen. "FILM REVIEW; Gory, Glory Hallelujah: Not Just Whistlin' 'Dixie'", The New York Times, 21 de febrero de 2003. Entrada 22 de octubre de 2007. "Both films were written and directed by Ronald F. Maxwell and adapted from a sequence of Civil War books begun by Michael Shaara, whose 1974 novel, The Killer Angels, became the movie Gettsysburg. Since Shaara's death in 1988, his work has been carried on by his son, Jeff, whose novel Gods and Generals was published seven years ago."
