Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Sunset of the Confederacy Longer are the shadows, richer are the colors of the evening clouds, deeper is the feeling as the close of the day draws near and the sun goes down: so was it with the War of the Great Rebellion as its end drew near. That momentous struggle had gone on for four long years. Much gallant blood had been shed, thousands of graves had been filled; and now, Sunday, the second day of April, 1865, - a memorable month and a memorable year in the annals of our country, - had come, and the church bells of Richmond, the capital of the Confederacy, were ringing for the morning service. Bright over the city was the sun in the bending sky, the jonquils were glowing in the gardens, the southern woods were sweet with the bloom of the jessamine, and the fields were gay with the voices of birds and brooks, - but the gloom of the people was deep indeed.

Download or read book Bastiles of the Confederacy Classic Reprint written by Frank E. Moran and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-11 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Bastiles of the Confederacy In adding this modest contribution to the annals of the Civil War, the writer has been actuated by motives sufficiently stated in the introductory pages, and not with the intention, much less the wish, to cast a shade of disparagement upon the more voluminous narratives of such writers as John McElroy, Warren Lee, Goss, Ambrose Spencer, Albert D. Richardson, Junius Henri Browne, Willard, Glazier and others, whose pens have pictured with graphic fidelity and eloquence the tragic and pathetic scenes which they witnessed while sharing captivity with him in the military prisons of the South. If a reason is required besides those given in the text for this publication at this time, it seems to be supplied by the posthumous paper of Jefferson Davis on "Andersonville," begun in Belford's Magazine for the present month (January, 1890). The writer has at irregular intervals since the war contributed to the newspapers of Philadelphia, New York and other cities a large number of sketches and reminiscences of his twenty months' experiences and observations in six of the chief war prisons of the South.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Plain People of the ConfederacyThe common folk, white and black, constituted the bone and sinew of the Southern Confederacy. White yeomen comprised the bulk of the armies that followed Lee in Virginia, Joe Johnston in the central South, and Kirby Smith beyond the Missis sippi. These rustics were not all exemplary soldiers by any means. Some of them were overly fond of liquor; others were impervious to discipline; thou sands absented themselves without leave; many preferred filth to cleanliness; hundreds played the coward when the bullets whistled close. But on the whole they were good fighters. It is not too much to say that the record of the Confederacy on the field of battle must stand or fall on the basis of their performance.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Carlyles a Story of the Fall of the Confederacy She found no one in the dining-room, opening upon a brick-walled garden full of blooming flowers. The mahogany furniture, frowning in shadow or twinkling in sunlight; the walls covered with dim portraits in oil and St. Memin prints of people who rather bored her because, in her father's estimation, no one ever seemed of consequence who had not worn a long busk or a tie-wig; the table set for two with china, silver, and damask that knew not stain or speck - all received a passing glance. Everything was in the order exacted by her fastidious sire. A glance at the clock showed a few moments before he would be down. She improved them by running out into the garden.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Day of the Confederacy: A Chronicle of the Embattled South The secession movement had three distinct stages. The first, beginning with the news that Lincoln was elected, closed with the news, sent broadcast over the South from Charleston, that Federal troops had taken possession of Fort Sumter on the night of the 26th of December. During this period the likelihood of secession was the topic of discussion in the lower South. What to do in case the lower South seceded was the question which perplexed the upper South. In this period no State north of South Carolina contemplated taking the initiative. In the Southeastern and Gulf States immediate action of some sort was expected. Whether it would be secession or some other new course was not certain on the day of Lincoln's election. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Hawthorne says, as if in extenuation of the fact that he went abroad to seek in ideal Italy material for his crowning work of genius, that no one, without a trial, can conceive of the difficulty of writing a romance about a country where there is no shadow or mystery, no gloomy wrong or picturesque ruin, to inspire the ambitious pen of poet or novelist.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Short History of the Confederate States of America The Vindication of the Southern States for their Ordi nances of Secession in 1861 involves two considerations namely: their rightful power to withdraw from the Union into which they had entered by voluntary compact and the causes that justified the exercise of that: power. In treating this question in its twofold aspect, the legal and the moral, it is not intended to vex the weary ear by adducing time-worn arguments; but, believing the case to be one which must be adjusted finally by historical facts, the candid reader is asked, Without favor or prejudice, to make a decision on the unquestionable record.
