Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Rebellion Record, 1861, Vol. 1: A Diary of American Events, With Documents, Narratives, Illustrative Incidents, Poetry, Etc
It was observed that we did not aim either to supersede or to keep pace with the newspapers, but to subject them, both North and South, to the cru cible of time following them at such distance as may be required to verify and classify all that is best worth preserving out of the immense mass of lead ers, speeches, letters, and reports, which crowd the daily press; every im portant document and extended narrative being given in consecutive order, and numbered, with references from the Diary.
