Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Judge Longstreet: A Life Sketch When, at the request of the surviving members of the immediate family of the late Judge A. B. Longstreet, I consented to undertake the preparation of a memoir of that rare and fascinating genius, I did not know whether I would make of it a monograph or a volume. Accessible material was scant. His contemporaries were nearly all dead. Here and there were persons still laughing over his "Georgia Scenes," but the man was fast becoming a tradition. I began the work with the purpose to let it take its own shape, using the material that came into my hands as Aaron used the golden earrings of the Israelites cast by him into the furnace. The outcome is not a golden calf, but this book. To the Hon. L. Q. C. Lamar, of the United States Supreme Court; Chancellor Edward Mayes, of the University of Mississippi; the Rev. Walter R. Branham, the Rev. Dr. Weyman H. Potter, the Rev. John W. Burke, lion. Walter B. Hill, and the Rev. Dr. J. T. Wightman I hereby tender sincere thanks for the help they have given me. And to the house of Harper & Brothers, New York, the original publishers of the "Georgia Scenes," I would also express my thanks for special courtesies gracefully rendered.
