Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life Letters of General W. H. L. Wallace In the days of chivalry men of action performed deeds which were heralded by tuneful bards, thus perpetuating noble lives to be admired and emulated by succeeding generations. All through the ages these heroic men appear on the pages of history as links in the great chain wrought by the eternal hand of God in His plans for the betterment and advancement of the human race. General W. H. L. Wallace can be called the Chevalier Bayard of the North, as was General Kirby-Smith the Chevalier Bayard of the Southern Confederacy. The life of General Wallace, in the short space of forty-one years, touched on some of the great events of American history in the nineteenth century, and side-lights from private letters and papers are here thrown on these momentous times. Some glimpses are also given of the bravery and suffering of the women at home during the Civil War with soldier husbands in the army, a phase not so often dwelt upon as the heroic deeds of the men at the front.
