Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Civil War: From a Southern Stand-Point As to how' well the author has succeeded in her effort the reader must decide, and to do so fairly he should keep in mind the design of the work and think calmly of the great struggle and what may be the final outcome. In my judgment, all who thus act must go beyond the pinched patriotism of sectional ani mosities, and while deeply deploring the war with its sad phys ical and sadder moral effects, honor the heroic effort of the South. Although the work is intensely Southern, its spirit is excellent, all severity being carefully avoided by the author. I bespeak for it a cordial welcome at the hands of a generous public. R. Lin.

He has no disposition to entreat criticism or importune its charities. But he would be incapable of gratitude, if he was not sensible of the marks of public generosity which have been given to a work which made no pretensions to severe or legitimate history, and ventured upon no solicitations of literary success.

Download or read book Southern Historical Society Papers Vol 1 written by J. William Jones and published by . This book was released on 2016-07-22 with total page 512 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Southern Historical Society Papers, Vol. 1: January to June, 1876 The late civil war which raged in the United States has been very generally attributed to the abolition of slavery as its cause. When we consider how deeply the institutions of southern society and the Operations of southern industry were founded in slavery, we must admit that this was cause enough to have produced sucha result. But great and wide as was that cause in its far-reaching effects, a close study of the history of the times will bring us to the conclu sion that it was the fear of a mischief far more extensive and deeper even than this which drove cool and reflecting minds in the South to believe that it was better to make the death struggle at once than submit tamely to what was inevitable, unless its coming could be averted by force. Men, too old to be driven blindly by passion, women, whose gentle and kindly instincts were deeply impressed by the horrors of war, and young men, with fortune and position yet to be won in an open and inviting field, if peace could be main tained so as to secure the opportunities of liberty and fair treat ment, united in the common cause and determined to make a holo caust of all that was dear to them on the altars of war sooner than submit without resistance to the loss of liberty, honor and pro perty by a cruel abuse of power and a breach of plighted faith on the part of those who had professed to enter with them into a union of justice and fraternal affection.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Southern Historical Society Papers, Vol. 2: July to December, 1876 It is now nine years since the close of our civil war, and consider ing how rapidly things change in this fast age, and that we too must' soon pass away, it is about time at least to commence to vindicate the truth of history; for much of the history of that conflict exists only in the memory of the actors therein, and if they die without recording their experiences the truth is lost.

This book was released on 2018-01-26 with total page 110 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Echoes From the Battlefield or Southern Life During the War After a lapse of many years a retrospective mood possessed my thoughts, and for abrief period I was no longer a man but a boy full of life, and was once more playing with other children on the grounds of the old homestead, enjoying myself as only a healthy lad can; and while thus musing every scene in the grand but cruel panorama of war passed rapidly before my vision and tempted me so strongly that I could not resist the temptation to write and leave to my only child a true record of events as they occurred during that stormy period of our civil war. This is the only apology I can offer for this faulty little publication; but since it is finished, I now offer it to all who are willing to pass its imperfections by; and hope that some of its readers who were so fortunate as to escape the realities of war may by its perusal glean something of interest. And may some of the characters in it be found worthy of emulation. I have added some very beautiful poems by the best of authors, which will be found ex.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Southern Heroes: Or the Friends in War Time In presenting this volume to the public, the writer would say that he has been only one of many who have for a long time realized the importance of preserving, in book form, a record of certain facts concerning the sufferings of Friends in the South, during the war of 1861-65. Others have begun the work, but from various causes they have thus far failed to complete it. As years have passed, the opportunities for gaining reliable information have become less and less favorable, on account of the death of some of those who, "for conscience toward God, endured grief, suffering wrongfully." To delay longer would make the task of writing such a book still more difficult. This work has therefore been undertaken with the desire to preserve for coming generations this portion of a hitherto unwritten history. To all those who have so kindly aided in the preparation of the manuscript, the writer would hereby express his appreciation and gratitude; and it is his hope that the deeply interesting nature of the subject may induce the critical reader to pass lightly over the numerous defects which may be discovered in the work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The War in America: Being an Historical and Political Account of the Southern and Northern States; Showing the Origin and Cause of the Present Secession War Although we have endeavoured to be impartial in the presentation of facts, yet we are sure neither the fanatics of the north, nor the fire-eaters of the south, will be pleased with the expositions we have made. He who does not sustain their respective destructive policies is censured; and such, no doubt, will be our inevitable fate. We are a native of Virginia. In youth our play-grounds were upon the banks of bull-run: and as we loved our country then, so we do now; and we shall continue to cherish the hope for its common weal. We trust that a new govern ment will be framed - one that will prevent the success of sectionalism, Whether in the north or in the south.

Book Young Folk s History of the War for the Union  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Young Folk s History of the War for the Union Classic Reprint written by John Denison Champlin and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-08-16 with total page 616 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Young Folk's History of the War for the Union HE writer has endeavored to give, in the following pages, an unprejudiced and impartial account of our great Civil War. The difficulty of such a task can scarcely be appreciated by one who has not himself made the attempt. The echoes of the contest have scarcely yet died away, and the bitter feelings born of it are still apt to warp the judgment and to unfit men of either part of our country to estimate calmly the motives and acts of their opponents. Yet he who would write a truth ful history of those times must necessarily divest himself of partisanship and lift himself above the plane of local prejudice. If the writer has failed to do this, it is not because he has not made an honest effort to weigh carefully the facts as narrated by both Northern and Southern writers, and to give each side its just dues. As the work is intended primarily for young folks, the author has aimed to give, in chronological order, a plain and concise account of the most striking events of the war, enlivened by sketches of the prominent men engaged in it, and by inci dents and anecdotes illustrative of it. Though some of the stories are possibly apocryphal, many of the characteristic ones which serve to throw light upon the period and its events have been retained without any attempt to prove their truth or falsity. The writer has consulted the best available sources, and it is believed that the narrative is as nearly correct in its details as any previous work. The language used is simple, adapted to the understanding of the young, and technical words and expressions, when unavoidably used, are fully explained. The'=-illustrations are intended to be equally trustworthy, having been selected not for mere picturesqueness, but for their value in elucidating the text. The larger part of them were drawn at the time and from the objects which they represent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
