Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Soldier Boy, or Tom Somers in the Army: A Story of the Great Rebellion This volume is not altogether a military romance, though it contains the adventures of one of those noble-hearted and patriotic young men who went forth from homes of plenty and happiness to fight the battles of our imperilled country. The incidents of the story may be stirring and exciting; yet they are not only within the bounds of probability, but have been more than paralleled in the experience of hundreds of the gallant soldiers of the loyal army. The work is not intended to approach the dignity of a history, though the writer has carefully consulted the "authorities," both loyal and rebel, and has taken down the living words of enthusiastic participants in the stirring scenes described in this volume. He has not attempted to give a full picture of any battle, or other army operation, but simply of those movements in which the hero took a part. The book is a narrative of personal adventure, delineating the birth and growth of a pure patriotism in the soul of the hero, and describing the perils and privations, the battles and marches which he shared with thousands of brave men in the army of the Potomac.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Romance of Military Life: Being Souvenirs Connected With Thirty Years' Service In a prefatory note to the extraordinary and eventful narrative, given under the name of Bar court, I have mentioned that I am indebted for the details it contains, to a brother officer with whom I was formerly associated on a particular service. A period of twelve years has elapsed since he imparted to me the incidents it embodies, but in the early part of 1850, I saw in an English newspaper, an extract from a French Official Journal, published by order of the Judicial Tri bunal in one of the Northern Departments (in all probability for the purpose of affording general information upon the subject, to enable any other claimants that might be in existence to come forward), stating, that demands had been made, and inquiries instituted by distant relatives, (or foreigners who declared themselves to be such, ) About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Second to None: A Military Romance In the following pages, and in delineating the character of my hero, I have chosen the ranks of the 2nd Dragoons, not because of any national partiality, but from the desire to describe the adventures of a soldier in a brave old regiment, which has served with distinction in every war since its formation - in short, from the battles of the Covenant to those in the Crimea; which had the proud distinction of capturing the Colours of the Regiment du Roi at Ramillies, the White Standard of King Louis' Household Troops at Dettingen, and the Colour and Eagle of Napoleon's 45th Foot at Waterloo. Several historical incidents, and one or two traditions of the Service, are interwoven with the story of Basil Gauntlet, the Scots Grey. I may mention that the misfortunes of his comrade Charters are nearly similar to those which befel an officer of the 15th Hussars prior to the war in the Peninsula; and that the dark story and death of the engineer Monjoy and of Madame d'Escombas formed one of the causes celebres before the Parliament of Paris during the middle of the last century.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from In Blue Uniform: An Army Novel In the time of which I write the Old Regi ment was furbishing up its battered accoutre ments after one campaign, and getting itself in handsome trim for another: This was an occupation that palled upon it after a little, for it smacked of the smug safety of civil life. Its forte lay in the field. It had a way of going forth with more cartridges and men than another regiment, and of coming back with fewer. That was why all the young men with a life apiece to throw away quickly, made haste to enlist with the Old Regiment. But now its chief end seemed to be to draw an oiled rag through a shiny gun-barrel - an occupation for old soldiers with a satiated taste for fighting. And garrison days were unconscionably long in coming to an end. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
