Book excerpt: Excerpt from Harper's Pictorial History of the Civil War, Vol. 1 In 1765 the first Colonial Congress for redress of grievances assembled at New York. But'it was in no sense an authoritative body. It was composed of delegates from the several Colonial Assemblies, with three exceptions, who acted under special instructions. They set forth a Declaration of R1ghts and Grievances; they petitioned the King, and sent memorials to Parliament. But they only claimed all the privileges of Englishmen as their birthright, and therefore, protested against being taxed by'a body in which they were not represented. _their doings were warmly approved by the Assemblies and the people of all the colonies, and the first step was unconsciously taken toward the political union, the separate national existence, of the English race in America. The lapse of nine years, passed in the endurance of a common oppression from their common mother, and m continuous consultation as to their means of resistance, developed _rapidly a unity of feeling 1n the colo nies, which took form ia the Continental Congress, composed of leading men from twelve provinces, -which assembled 1n Philadelphia. Under the guid ance of this body the power of the British government was in the course of events defied, and the independence of the colonies declared and maintained; but at first it merely imitated its predecessor ln adopting a Declaration of Rights, in which the privileges of Englishmen and British subjects were claimed - most important of all, the right of being bound by no law to which they had not consented by their representatives: It took no active measure of resistance, and merely recommended one which may be called passive a voluntary association, pledging the 'associators to entire commercial non intercourse with Great Britain. -it rs desirable to bring to mind these well known facts in view of the character and the pretensions of the rebellion the course of which we are about to trace, and also of the1 grounds on which the government of the United States took up. Arms for its suppression. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

On one side had been gathered over two millions of men, on the other nearly every available man who could be put to service in the field, together forming an army numbering nearly four millions.
