Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Life and Letters of Judge Thomas J. Anderson and Wife: Including a Few Letters From Children and Others; Mostly Written During the Civil War; A History The letters are in part historical, and to make them clearer, and more comprehensive, and authoritative, they have been carefully annotated. To do this well has taken much time and labor. In preparing the memoirs, and in annotating the letters, I have consulted many standard histories, and many other authorities, and reliable sources of information. Some of which I will name: Scribner´s History of the United States; The Military History of Ohio, by Hardesty; The American Con¿ict, by Greeley; The New International Encyclopaedia; Fox´s Losses in the Civil War; Johnson´s Universal Cyclopedia; Military Reminiscenses of the Civil War, by Gen. Cox; The Citizen Soldier, by Gen. John Beatty; Memoirs of Gen. Sherman; Personal Memoirs of Gen. Grant; Personal Memoirs of Gen. Sheridan: The History of the Civil War in America, by the Comte de Paris; Harper´s Encyclopaedia of the History of the United States; Jameson´s Dictionary of United States History: The Winning of the West, by Theo. Roosevelt; The National History of the United States by Ellis; Reid´s Ohio In the War: Ohio Statesmen and Annals of Progress by Col. W. A. Taylor; the U. S. Government publications, and the Ohio State publications, relating to the Civil War; various southern publications; numerous county histories, and many other books, some written before and some since the Civil War. Friends residing in Marion, and in other counties, have kindly furnished me information, for which they have my heartfelt thanks. But the ones to whom I am most indebted are Henry True and Burr Raichley of Marion, both capable scholarly gentlemen of high character. I have from the beginning been extremely anxious to be accurate, for my own sake, for the sake of those who appear in the book, for the sake of the reader, and to encourage and promote historic accuracy. A few persons, I regret to say, from whom I sought genealogical data, were too churlish, or ignorant, or lazy to answer my letters, though really written in their interest. It may be thought that some of the letters herein, relating to business, or private affairs, should not have been published.
