Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from The Adventures of a Conscript From early childhood I had been a close student and an earnest seeker after knowledge. I believed it was possible in this great country of ours for a man of ambition to reach a higher and nobler life than those who were content to grow up and fall like the leaves. I had completed the common grades and was ready to enter upon higher branches when the call to arms came. In politics I had been trained in the old Whig school, and although, on account of my youth, I had taken but little interest in affairs of Government, living in the midst of slavery, and daily observing the evils of the whole system, I had become thoroughly imbued with the anti-slavery doctrine, and every day was more and more convinced in my own mind that it was wrong. When, in 1860, Mr. Lincoln was elected President, I then heard the mutterings of secession, and the boast that one Southern man was equal to ten "Yankees." In a short time one State after another followed in rapid succession, severing the ties that held them together.
