Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Battle of Allatoona, October 5th, 1864: A Paper Read Before the Michigan Commandery of the Military Order of the Loyal Legion of the U. S Companions and Gentlemen: It appears strange to me that an action which all who mention it - and they are many - agree in characterizing as one of the most brilliant exploits of a war as thickset with deeds of gallantry as a lose bush with its blossoms, should not long since have had its adequate historian and monographer. The contest was so famous, the issue so glorious, the recollection of the day still must be so vivid in the minds of the survivors, that I could not anticipate any lack of material where from to procure data to formulate a reasonably satisfactory narrative of such a gallant feat of arms, and in such detail as to give it life and color. But of all the war papers that have been written on affairs great and small, none that I know has had Allatoona for its special subject, and from the sources of information at my command, I have found it quite impracticable to construct an account that is not in some respect at variance with others made by authority.
