Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The American Nation, a History, Vol. 21: Outcome of the Civil War, 1863-1865
For the most part, the battles described have been studied on the fields where they took place; the strategy of the generals, while traversing the lines of movement of the contending armies. Much has been gained from the stories of participants North and South, in stations high and low; while the author's own recollections tend to make definite the details of the picture. The present volume, like its predecessor, has been for the most part written in the Library of Congress, at Washington, and I desire to repeat here the acknowledgment of obliga tion already made to the accomplished staff of that institution for their politeness and skilled assistance.
