Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The True History of the Civil War It does not, as here used, mean absolutely free from error. "True," in our title, means unprejudiced and non-sectional, and in this sense I accept it as placing my book in - not outside of - the ranks of those histories which have won the respect of their readers. Perhaps, too, in following out the idea expressed by the word "True," I have succeeded in producing a book that in some degree differs from existing histories in that it is not written from the stand-point of a neutral. What is said of any section is said as a partisan of that section. I have endeavored when writing of the North to write as a Northerner, of the South as a Southerner, and in all this as an American upon whom all the States have a claim. The book attempts no balancing, no hedging, no glossing, and it seeks no "golden mean," - for there is no true mean in passion, and the Civil War was a conflict of passion. I give, therefore, a book of extremes - of uncompromising conclusions. I present men and events as they were, not as they might have been. In this presentation I have necessarily written plainly, perhaps brutally, but in every case in strict honesty.
