Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Chronicles of the Great Rebellion: The Beginning of the Same Until the Fall of Vicksburg Common Usage is Law, and Usage says, that he who writes a book must write a Preface. The book which is here presented to the reader, gives an epitome or outline of the great Rebellion. To enter into detail, would make the work quite voluminous; and, it was considered, that at a time like the present, when momentous events are almost daily occurring, the great public cannot detain to listen to a minute detail of incidents. At first, the author did not design to give the labors of his pen to the public. He was amid the stirring scenes of the Rebellion, and though a civilian and an old man, often has he, within the last two years, heard the roar of artillery, and witnessed the evolutions of soldiers going forth to battle. He commenced the "Chronicles" with no other motive than to beguile the hours of leisure, that, with the loss of business incident to the war, lay heavily upon him.
