Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Recollections of a Maryland Confederate Soldier and Staff Officer Under Johnston, Jackson and Lee In the Fall of 1865, when the details were fresh in my memory, I wrote out an account of the retreat from Richmond in April, 1865, of the command with which I was then serving in the Confederate Army. Some years afterwards it came into the possession of Dr. W. Hand Browne, Editor of the Southern Magazine, which was made the organ of the Southern Historical Society and gave to it a certain number of pages as a supplement to the Magazine, being page numbered separately. In 1874 Dr. Browne printed this account, under the title, "Retreat of Custis Lee´s Division and Battle of Sailor´s Creek," in these Transactions of the Southern Historical Society. About 1883 I wrote for the Military Historical Society of Massachusetts an account of the capture of the salient at Spotsylvania Court House on May 12, 1864, and soon after elaborated it to "Notes and Recollections of the Opening of the Campaign of 1864," which completed paper I read to the Society April 16, 1883, and it has since appeared in Volume IV of its publications. These two papers were referred to and quoted from by General A. A. Humphreys in his standard Virginia Campaign of 1864 and 1865 - or rather the Spotsylvania part of the second paper was, for the completed paper had not been given to the Society when his history was written.
