Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1911 edition. Excerpt: ...Federal prisoners of war confined in Southern prisons. This whole petition recited a bold, broad lie; a mean, deliberate, malicious slander on the brave people and government of the South. It was then a well-known fact, and at this day proven beyond question, that the Confederate Government was willing and anxious to exchange prisoners of war, but the powers at Washington, and General U. S. Grant, refused to make exchange, and rejected all offers for exchange made to them by the Confederate authorities. In fact, the United States authorities even refused to send transports and get their sick and wounded men--prisoners of war--that our government offered them at any time they would send transports. It further can be said, without fear of contradiction, that, at the time this petition for retaliation was before the United States Senate, President Lincoln and all his officials had full knowledge thatthe Confederate Government was feeding to its prisoners of war the same rations the Confederate soldier received in the field. What more could our government do? What more could be demanded of them? The late Senator Sumner offered a substitute for the Lane resolution of retaliation, which can be found in the United States Senate Reports, 186465. It reads: "Be it resolved, That the treatment of our "officers and soldiers in Rebel prisons is cruel, "savage, and heartrending beyond all precedent; "that it is shocking to morals; that it is an offence "against human nature itself; that it adds new guilt "to the great crime of rebellion, and constitutes an "example from which history will turn with sorrow "and digust. "Resolved, That any attempted imitation of "Rebel barbarism in the treatment of...

Download or read book Immortal Captives written by Mauriel Joslyn and published by . This book was released on 1996 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Immortal Captives is two books in one. Mauriel Joslyn has used the story of 600 Confederate prisoners of war to provide insight into the larger questions about prisoner of war issues in the Civil War. Combining original scholarship with full quotations from the participants in the events she describes, she has created both a memorial to the captured officers who came to be held at Fort Pulaski, Georgia and a good history. The policies of President Abraham Lincoln, Lieutenant General Ulysses S. Grant, in addition to those of lower ranking Union leaders come under reevaluation in this story. The Union deliberately chose 600 Confederate officers from fourteen Southern states for its policy of retaliation. Against humanity, those officers were forced to face the artillery fire of their comrades when they were placed in a stockade in Charleston Harbor from August to October of 1864. Their ordeal continued when they were moved to Fort Pulaski for the winter. The last of them were not released until July 1865, months after the war ended.

Download or read book The Immortal 600 written by Karen Stokes and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2021-01-25 with total page 129 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1864, six hundred Confederate prisoners of war, all officers, were taken out of a prison camp in Delaware and transported to South Carolina, where most were confined in a Union stockade prison on Morris Island. They were placed in front of two Union forts as "human shields" during the siege of Charleston and exposed to a fearful barrage of artillery fire from Confederate forts. Many of these men would suffer an even worse ordeal at Union-held Fort Pulaski near Savannah, Georgia, where they were subjected to severe food rationing as retaliatory policy. Author and historian Karen Stokes uses the prisoners' writings to relive the courage, fraternity and struggle of the "Immortal 600."
