Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Campaigns of the Rio Grande and of Mexico: With Notices of the Recent Work of Major Ripley In presenting these pages to the public, the writer relied much on manuscript notes, taken in the field and while the events were occurring. His object in appearing before the public was to testify to the services of those heroic officers and soldiers, who were in his judgment depreciated in the work of Major Ripley. He felt impelled to this course by a sense of duty; and he appeals to all the actors in those scenes to bear testimony in vindication of the truth. Otherwise the work of Major Ripley will be considered authentic in all respects, and its authority will perpetuate many wrong views of these transactions. At the same time he thinks the work has much positive merit. It shows decided ability and promises well for the future. Should Major Ripley come to this task again, with powers matured by a few years more study and reflection, and with entire freedom from partisan feelings, there is no doubt his reputation as a military writer would be established, and his work appealed to as authority.
