Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Contest for California in 1861: How Colonel E. D. Baker Saved the Pacific States to the Union A Professor in one of our leading universities, said a New York paper I received one day at my hotel in London, - I quote from memory, certain that I do not quote literally, - visiting Washington, in one of the interesting rooms of the Capitol came upon a marble statue inscribed "Baker." Whereupon - so the story ran - this learned professor - young, I dare say, probably familiar with the names of the heroes of the Peloponnesian War - asked, "Who was Baker? What did he do to get in here?" These questions prompted me to write this book. But, years before our learned professor asked his questions I had reflected that those of us who knew General Baker, who came under the spell of his incomparable charm, and who retain recollections of his power and influence and achievements, are becoming few; and if one of us is to enlighten the professor - and others no better informed - it must be done soon. I wish some one better qualified than I had undertaken the task. To write the history of an important episode is - being a plain business man I will venture to use a business man's expression and say, "out of my line." However, I feel that what I have done, though poorly, would better be done poorly than not at all. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Civil War in Arizona written by Andrew E. Masich and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2012-12-04 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bull Run, Gettysburg, Appomattox. For Americans, these battlegrounds, all located in the eastern United States, will forever be associated with the Civil War. But few realize that the Civil War was also fought far to the west of these sites. The westernmost battle of the war took place in the remote deserts of the future state of Arizona. In this first book-length account of the Civil War in Arizona, Andrew E. Masich offers both a lively narrative history of the all-but-forgotten California Column in wartime Arizona and a rare compilation of letters written by the volunteer soldiers who served in the U.S. Army from 1861 to 1866. Enriched by Masich’s meticulous annotation, these letters provide firsthand testimony of the grueling desert conditions the soldiers endured as they fought on many fronts.

Download or read book 1861 written by Adam Goodheart and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2012-02-21 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A gripping and original account of how the Civil War began and a second American revolution unfolded, setting Abraham Lincoln on the path to greatness and millions of slaves on the road to freedom. An epic of courage and heroism beyond the battlefields, 1861 introduces us to a heretofore little-known cast of Civil War heroes—among them an acrobatic militia colonel, an explorer’s wife, an idealistic band of German immigrants, a regiment of New York City firemen, a community of Virginia slaves, and a young college professor who would one day become president. Their stories take us from the corridors of the White House to the slums of Manhattan, from the waters of the Chesapeake to the deserts of Nevada, from Boston Common to Alcatraz Island, vividly evoking the Union at its moment of ultimate crisis and decision. Hailed as “exhilarating….Inspiring…Irresistible…” by The New York Times Book Review, Adam Goodheart’s bestseller 1861 is an important addition to the Civil War canon. Includes black-and-white photos and illustrations.
