Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Young Lieutenant: Or, the Adventures of an Army Officer; A Story of Great Rebellion This volume is a sequel to "The Soldier Boy;" and, though the leading character is the same in both books, there is no necessary connection between them, each forming an independent story. The material for the work, so far as its historical relations are concerned, has been derived from authentic sources; not from books and papers only, but from intelligent and reliable persons who participated in the stirring scenes of which they gave testimony. The author especially acknowledges his indebtedness to Captain William V. Munroe, late of the Eleventh Massachusetts Regiment, for details of the Peninsular Campaign; and to Captain Henry N. Blake, author of "Three Years in the Army of the Potomac," for valuable information relative to the movements of General Hooker's Division. Like "The Soldier Boy," this book is a narrative of personal adventure, rather than a connected historical account of the operations before Richmond; though, so far as positions and movements of the army are introduced, they are based upon reliable information.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: William Taylor Adams (July 30, 1822 - March 27, 1897), pseudonym Oliver Optic, was a noted academic, author, and a member of the Massachusetts House of Representatives. Adams became a teacher in the Lower Road School in Dorchester, Massachusetts in 1843, he resigned from his position as master of the school in 1846 in order to assist his father and brother in the management of their new hotel in Boston, the Adams House hotel. Adams decided that he preferred teaching so in 1848 he returned to teaching this time at the Boylston School in Boston. In 1860, Adams was promoted to the position of master of the Boylston School. When the Bowditch School was founded, Adams transferred to that school as its master, a position he held until he resigned from teaching in 1865. This experience naturally brought him closely into contact with boys, and he learned much of what interested them, which had a good deal to do with his eventual success as an author. Extensive travel abroad and a deep knowledge of boats, farming, and practical mechanics were other factors that gave his works reality.

Book excerpt: "I beg your pardon, sir; but I see, by the number on your cap, that we belong to the same regiment," said an officer with two bars on his shoulder-straps, as he halted in the aisle of the railroad-car, near where Lieutenant Thomas Somers was seated. "May I be permitted to inquire whom I have the honor of addressing?" "Lieutenant Somers, of the --th Massachusetts," replied the young gentleman addressed, as he politely touched his cap in return for the salutation of the other. "Ah! is it possible? I am rejoiced to meet you. I have heard of you before. Allow me to add in the most delicate manner, that you are a good fellow, a first-rate soldier, and as brave an officer 6 as ever sported a pair of shoulder-straps. Permit me to offer you my hand; and allow me to add, that it is a hand which was never sullied by a dishonorable act." "I am happy to make your acquaintance," replied Lieutenant Somers, as he accepted the offered hand. "Won't you take a seat, Captain--" "Captain de Banyan, at your service," continued the officer, as he seated himself by the side of the young lieutenant, who was completely bewildered by the elegant and courtly speech of his new-found friend.
