Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Personal Recollections of Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War Among the many disclosures that are now being made in regard to the men and events of our recent Civil War, none are more interesting than those which relate to the eminent man who guided the country through that great crisis. Each fresh disclosure reveals him in some new aspect, and they all deepen the impression that he was a "providential man," singularly endowed, and specially commissioned, for the vast work which he did in American history. It was my good fortune to know him well, and to be, at an early period in his administration, the depositary of his confidential views on national policy, and also his trusted agent in the attempted carrying out of some of his more important plans in connection with the Civil War. Therefore it has been represented to me that it would deepen the universal affection and reverence for this great and good man, if I were to make public what I know of the inner history of some of the important events of the war before I go hence and can no longer speak face to face with my countrymen. For this reason these sketches are now published. Some of them appeared during the war in the columns of the Atlantic Monthly and the New York Tribune but the larger part are now freshly produced from notes made while the events were transpiring, and from a somewhat retentive memory.
