Book The Rebellion  Vol  1 of 8  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Rebellion Vol 1 of 8 Classic Reprint written by Jonathan W. Buhoup and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-02-03 with total page 46 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rebellion, Vol. 1 of 8 The earth has been cursed with civil wars from the earliest times in which we have records of the race. Though characterized by more or less ferocity, and assuming various shapes, they all may be divided into two general classes. Those that occur under a despotic form of government, spring from oppression which the people, no longer able to bear, venture all the terrible hazard of a resolution to throw off. Those that take place under a democratic form of government, are brought about by a few ambitious men, who seek by faction to obtain power. Those of the former class possess dignity and grandeur, from the fact that they are based on the great doctrine of human rights. Man asserting his inherent, God-given rights on the battle field against overwhelm ing odds, is a sublime spectacle. The latter are based on falsehoods, and kept alive by deception. Such were the civil wars of the early republics. In the time of Cromwell, both religious. And civil liberty were the grand prizes of the struggle; and whether we look at Hampden, calmly suffering for the sake of liberty, or at Cromwell's Ironsides, sweeping like a thunder cloud to battle, with the fearful war cry, religion, on their lips, our deepest sympathies and admiration are excited, and we forget the horrors of the carnage in the mighty stake at issue. So in the bloody revolution of France; though the views of the masses were vague, and their speech often incoherent, yet when we behold inscribed on their banner the great charter of human rights, and the head of a king thrown down as the gage of battle, we no longer see the crimson field with its garments rolled in blood, we see only the divine image of human liberty hovering over it.

Book The Literature of the Rebellion  Classic Reprint

Download or read book The Literature of the Rebellion Classic Reprint written by John Russell Bartlett and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literature of the Rebellion In preparing this Bibliography of the Rebellion, the compiler has been at a loss where to begin his labors, inasmuch as events of great importance, which occurred long before the outbreak, had a direct bearing upon it, and require notice. The Raid at Harper's Ferry by John Brown; the contest for Freedom in Kansas; the working of the Fugitive Slave Law; the Missouri Compromise, and the long struggle between the Slave and Free States from the very adoption of the Federal Constitution, which finally culminated in the rebellion, - all seem to be a preparation for this event. With this view of the subject, the compiler has deemed it best that his catalogue should cover the whole ground of these several events, and should, consequently, include works relating to American Slavery. The historians of the rebellion, generally, have taken the same view, and have covered the field, beginning with the adoption of the Constitution in their preliminary remarks. But, although it was determined to embrace works on this subject in the catalogue, it is, in this respect, far from complete, as the compiler did not commence till recently to collect works on American Slavery. But, notwithstanding the deficiencies in this department, he believes that his catalogue contains more titles on the subject than can be found elsewhere. The catalogue will be found to include titles of the following: 1. Books and Pamphlets relating to the Rebellion, and to topics connected therewith, published in the United States and Europe. 2. Congressional Reports; Reports and Documents from the Departments of the War and the Navy; Proceedings of Courts Martial; Communications from the Executive of the United States; Speeches in Congress, and all other publications of the general government, 1861-63, relating to the war. 3. Official publications of the several States covering the period of the war, - 1861 to 1865, - embracing Messages of Governors; Reports of Adjutant and Quartermaster Generals; Rosters of Volunteers; Documents and Reports relative to Volunteers, Bounties, the Draft, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Book Personal Recollections of the War of the Rebellion  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Personal Recollections of the War of the Rebellion Classic Reprint written by Military Order of the Loyal Legion York and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Personal Recollections of the War of the Rebellion This fourth volume of papers and sermons comprises papers presented at the banquets which follow the regular stated meetings of the Commandery, and sermons preached before the Commandery, as a part of the annual Church service which, during the past few years, has been held in commemoration of the surrender at Appomattox on April 9, 1865, an event that brought peace within our borders and that cemented once more the union of States comprising our great Republic. One object of the foundation of this Order, set forth in our Constitution, is - "to cherish the memories and associations of the war waged in defence of the unity and indivisibility of the Republic..." There is no way in which this result can be more effectually accomplished than by bringing together the personal recollections of those who took part in that great struggle. These narratives of personal experiences are interesting, not only because they bring us in contact with events of which the narrators themselves were a part, but also because, as a relation of facts and incidents based upon the personal observations and experiences of participants, they bring us much closer to the actual events of the War of the Rebellion than the more formal statements of the professional historian. Many of the incidents referred to, which are more or less of a personal character, would never have become matter of record but for these papers, nevertheless they give life to the accounts that are presented in the official reports. New York, February, 1912. The seeming paragon; To whom the better elements And kindly stars have given A form so fair, that, like the air, 'Tis less of earth than heaven.

Book Mr  Ambrose s Letters on the Rebellion  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Mr Ambrose s Letters on the Rebellion Classic Reprint written by John Pendleton Kennedy and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-03 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mr. Ambrose's Letters on the Rebellion These letters of Mr. Paul Ambrose were written at intervals, as their dates will show, from the close of the second year of the Civil War down to the restoration of peace after the surrender of Lee. They were addressed to the author's old friend, Mr. Seaton, of the "National Intelligencer," and, with the exception of the last, were published in that paper. The topics they bring into discussion are those suggested by the principles and incidents of the rebellion as these rose to view in the rapid transit of events. In the study of these topics the reader will not fail to remark how gradually and sharply the destined plot of this great drama was developed, from day to day, in the progress of what we might call the ripening of a wonderful revolution in the political and social character of the nation. Mr. Ambrose has endeavored to explore the secret motives which impelled a class of politicians in the South, not without some effective cooperation from auxiliaries both in the North and West, to contrive the overthrow of the Union.

This book was released on 2016-08-23 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Register of the Members of the "Artillery Corps, Washington Grays" Of the City of Philadelphia Who Served in the War of the Rebellion; 1861-1865 As a matter of duty to those whose names are hereinafter recorded, as well as to those who may be related by ties of blood to those who are dead, this list of members of the Artillery Corps, Washington Grays who served in the Union Army during the War of the Rebellion, 1861-1865, has been compiled. To those who are conversant with the history of the City and State for the last fifty years and more, no word of explanation will be necessary, but as this volume may fall into the hands of some one to whose mind the query may present itself: Who were the Washington Grays? A single note of interpretation may be useful and welcome. Being fully convinced of the utility of a well regulated Volunteer Corps in a republican government, as well in time of peace as in war, some members of the Second Company of Washington Guards, Captain John Swift, which had served during the War of Eighteen Hundred and Twelve, in the Brigade of General Thomas Cadwalader, met together at the public house of Daniel Rubicam, No. 20 S. Sixth Street, Philadelphia, on April 19, 1822, with the View of forming a body of picked men, whose perfect drill, thorough organization, absolute discipline and uniform gentlemanly deportment in and out of uniform would claim and deserve the support and respect of a discriminating community, and establish for themselves a reputation of an easy first in the particular line of its justifiable ambition.
