Book excerpt: Excerpt from Military Reminiscences of the Civil War, Vol. 2 Importance of unity in command - Inevitable difficulties in a double organization - Burnside's problem different from that of Rosecrans - Co-operation necessarily imperfect - Growth of Grant's reputation - Solid grounds of it - Special orders sent him - Voyage to Cairo - Meets Stanton at Louisville - Division of the Mississippi created - It included Burnside's and Rosecrans's departments - Alternate forms in regard to Rosecrans - He is relieved - Thomas succeeds him - Grant's relations to the change - His intellectual methods - Taciturnity - Patience - Discussions in his presence - Clear judgments - His "good anecdote" - Rosecrans sends Garfield to Washington - Congressman or General - Duplication of offices - Interview between Garfield and Stanton - Dana's dispatches - Garfield's visit to me - Description of the rout of Rosecrans's right wing - Effect on the general - Retreat to Chattanooga - Lookout Mountain abandoned - The President's problem - Dana's light upon it - Stanton's use of it - Grant's acquiescence - Subsequent relations of Garfield and Rosecrans - Improving the "cracker line" - Opening the Tennessee - Combat at Wauhatchie. It is very evident that, at the close of September, Mr. Lincoln and Mr. Stanton had become satisfied that a radical change must be made in the organization of the Western armies. The plan of sending separate armies to co-operate, as Rosecrans's and Burnside's had been expected to do, was in itself vicious. It is, after a fashion, an attempt of two to ride a horse without one of them riding behind. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Military Reminiscences, Vol. 2: Extracted From a Journal of Nearly Forty Years' Active Service in the East Indies After this faint outline of the damage sustained on shore, I know not what words can picture the horrors of the scene in the roads. Of all the ships, brigs, cutters, ketches, donies, sl0. Only one solitary brig escaped, by put ting out to sea, at the commencement of the storm. Many foundered at their anchors, for the surface rose as far out as nine fathoms, others were literally torn to pieces, and the rest dashed against the shore, in all directions. The whole beach was covered with wrecks, from St. Thome to the Custom House, a distance of nearly three miles.

Book excerpt: At Cross Lanes I met the commanders of the other brigades who were called in by General Rosecrans of an informal consultation based upon my knowledge of the country and the enemy. I naturally scanned them with some interest, and tried to make the most of the opportunity to become acquainted with them. General Benham I knew already, from his visit to me at Gauley Bridge in his capacity of engineer officer. I had met Colonel Robert McCook at Camp Dennison, and now that it was intimated that he would be for some days under my command, I recalled a scene I had witnessed there which left many doubts in my mind whether he would prove an agreeable subordinate.

Excerpt: ...done at sea was, --the ill-fated Atlas totally lost off Pulicat, early on the morning of the 10th, with three Europeans and two Natives drowned; the rest of the crew providentially saved. The General Palmer returned in five days, when the Chief-mate reported, that he had never experienced such a gale in his life; and but for the strength of the ship, being quite new from Calcutta, and the good conduct of her crew, she must have gone down, as he feared all the others had done, for he saw them all round in distress, and before he returned, had observed wrecks in all directions. He picked up six Lascars, who swam on board, for he had lost all his boats and spars, having two feet water on the gun-deck, and every thing washed off the poop. The Reliance, and some others, were dismasted; and several, whose names I could not learn, perished at sea. Even on the 10th, when a Catamoran ventured out for the relief of a dismasted vessel drifting by, she disappeared, and was never seen or heard of afterwards. It is extraordinary, that this Presidency should twice have been visited by heavy storms, in the hottest and stillest month in the whole year; and at the very time when most vessels are to be seen in the Roads. I never learned what number of small craft perished; but none were to be seen for some days after. The fine beach, between the fort and Black-town, was nearly destroyed; and great fears were entertained for a long and valuable range of public buildings, the verandas of wliich were literally filled with pieces of wrecks. There is a proverb of most venerable antiquity which states, that " It is a bad wind which blows nobody good," and this gale so disastrous to the community, and which nearly deprived me of life, from it's effect on my injured...
