Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Last Ninety Days of the War in North-Carolina The papers on the Last Ninety Days op the War in North-Carolina, which originally appeared in the New-York Watchman, and are now presented in book form, were commenced with no plan or intention of continuing them beyond two or three numbers. The unexpected favor with which they were received led to their extension, and finally resulted in their republication. To do justice to North-Carolina, and to place beyond cavil or reproach the attitude of her leaders at the close of the great Southern States Rights struggle - to present a faithful picture of the times, and a just judgment, whether writing of friend or foe, has been my sole object. Slight as these sketches are, they may claim at least the merit of truth, and this, I am persuaded, is no slight recommendation with tho truth-loving people of North-Carolina.

This book was released on 2016-10-12 with total page 42 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Last Year of the War in North Carolina, Including Plymouth, Fort Fisher and Bentonsville: An Address Before the Association Army of Northern Virginia, Delivered in the Hall of the House of Delegates, Richmond, Va., October 28, 1887 At any time, but more especially so soon after the memot able exercises and the soul-stirring oration of yesterday, it would be impossible for any true soldier of the Confederacy to perform the duty with which you have so highly honored me this evening, with out experiencing emotions to which it would be happier for him if he were insensible. The ood of memories which it turns loose, let him philosophize as he may, will overwhelm him, and the consciousness that the ranks of his living comrades are daily dwindling does not tend to diminish the power of these emotions. If he could divest himself of them entirely, and look at that past as he would at any other period of human history - without personal interest and with the calm gaze of a student - this duty would te solve itself into a mere literary exercise; but, thank God, who has given to each of us a spark of the divine attribute of love, such a passionless regard of that past is impossible, for the pictures it has painted on our memories it has also engraved upon our hearts. In the years that have passed since the close of our bloody drama, how often in the silent watches of the night, and even in the pursuit of our ordinary avocations, has each of us found himself contempla ting those pictures with all the varying emotions which they awaken! Their lines have grown softer beneath the mellowing touch of Time. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Download or read book The Confederate Defence of Morris Island Charleston Harbor by the Troops of South Carolina Georgia and North Carolina in the Late War Between the States Classic Reprint written by Robert Cogdell Gilchrist and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-07 with total page 62 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Confederate Defence of Morris Island, Charleston Harbor, by the Troops of South Carolina, Georgia, and North Carolina, in the Late War Between the States Skirting along ship channel, the main entrance into Charleston harbor, and thus commanding the only approach for large vessels to the city, is Morris Island: forever prominent in the history of the United States for being the site of the Battery that fired the first shot in the war between the States: still later for giving to the world its first lesson in iron-clad armor: and more than all, for being the theatre of a defence of an earth-work more stubborn and brave, of a siege as memorable and bombardments the most formidable in the annals of war. This Island is three and three-fourths miles long, and varies in width from twenty-five to one thousand yards. At its Northern extremity it is flat, and with the exception of a low line of sand hills is only two feet above high tide. Three-fourths of a mile from Cummings Point (where was situated Battery Gregg) the marsh on the West encroaches, leaving a narrow strip between it and the sea of twenty-five yards. Here was located the famed Fort Wagner. About two thousand yards Southward thence commences a range of hills of various height, stretching to "Oyster Point," the Southern end of the Island forming a secure shelter for troops. The Island is composed of quartz sand, which has no cohesion, and weighs, when dry, eighty-six pounds to the cubic foot. To its power in resisting the penetration of shot, and when displaced of falling back again to the very spot it had occupied, is due the comparative invulnerability of the works erected on this Island, advantageous alike to its defenders and assailants.
