Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Glimpse of the United States Military Telegraph Corps, and of Abraham Lincoln The golden dream of empire, which had haunted the waking and sleeping moments of the cultivated aristocratic ruling class of the Gulf States, and of the land barons of South Carolina and Georgia, aided and abetted by impracticable legislation and fanatical expressions of latitudinarian doctrines of government by agitators throughout the Northern States, had at last brought about that most deplorable of all conflicts - civil war. It was a serious hour for the principles of self-government by the people as represented by the Constitution of the great American Republic. Sumter had been fired upon, and the emblem of our nationality was lowered at the demand of revolting citizens. In this crisis, President Lincoln called upon the various States for 75,000 men to restore the authority of the National Government.
