Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Leaves From a Lawyer´s Life: Afloat and Ashore It was my custom, while on the Staff of Admiral Dahlgren, to note briefly, from time to time, incidents that took place in the Squadron under his command. I, also carefully noted the events that had taken place in that Squadron in Admiral Dupont´s time, as they were related to me by those who had been eye-witnesses thereto. Since my return to civil life, it has been my custom to examine the successive histories of the late War that have appeared, and to note their errors and their excellencies, in relation to the South Atlantic Blockading Squadron, and in relation to the Department of the South, which cooperated with that Squadron. These pages will show how little attention, comparatively, most of our historians have bestowed upon the naval and military forces whose services, sufferings and sacrifices are here passed in review. The mingling of narrative and criticism has its advantages as well as its disadvantages. In the present case, I indulge the hope that it may have the effect to secure to the South Atlantic Blockading Squadron its proper place in the history of the War.
