Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from History of the Civil War: 1861-1865
This is not an abridgment of my three volumes on the Civil War but a fresh study of the subject in which I have used my work as one of many authorities. When ever I have transferred sentences, paragraphs and pages, I have done so because, after a study of the original authorities, I found that I could give my conclusions no better than ln my first work.
