Book excerpt: Excerpt from Following the Flag: From August, Army to November, Potomac With the Army of the Potomac It will be many years before a complete history of the operations of the armies of the Union can be written; but that is not a sufficient reason why historical pictures may not now be painted from such materials as have come to hand. This volume, therefore, is a sketch of the operations of the Army of the Potomac from August, 1861, to November, 1862, while commanded by General McClellan. To avoid detail the organization of the army is given in an Appendix. It has not been possible, in a book of this size, to give the movements of regiments but the narrative has been limited to the operations of brigades and divisions. It will be comparatively easy, however, for the reader to ascertain the general position of any regiment in the different battles, by consulting the Appendix in connection with the narrative.

This book was released on 2013-09-06 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The battle of Bull Run, or of Manassas, as the Rebels call it, which was fought on the 21st of July, 1861, was the first great battle of the war. It was disastrous to the Union army. But the people of the North were not disheartened by it. Their pride was mortified, for they had confidently expected a victory, and had not taken into consideration the possibility of a defeat. The victory was all but won, as has been narrated in "My Days and Nights on the Battle-Field," when the arrival of a brigade of Rebels and the great mistake of Captain Barry, who supposed them to be Union troops, turned the scale, and the battle was lost to the Union army. But the people of the North, who loved the Union, could not think of giving up the contest, -of having the country divided, and the old flag trailed in the dust. They felt that it would be impossible to live peaceably side by side with those who declared themselves superior to the laboring men of the Free States, and were their rightful masters. They were not willing to acknowledge that the slaveholders were their masters. They felt that there could not be friendship and amity between themselves and a nation which had declared that slavery was its cornerstone. Besides all this, the slaveholders wanted Maryland, Kentucky, and Missouri in the Southern Confederacy, while the majority of the people of those States wanted to stay in the Union. The Rebels professed that they were willing that each State should choose for itself, but they were insincere and treacherous in their professions. Kentucky would not join the Confederacy; therefore they invaded the State to compel the people to forsake the old flag. A gentleman from Ohio accompanied a Southern lady to Columbus, on the Mississippi, to see her safely among her friends. General Polk was commander of the Rebel forces at that place, and they talked about the war. "I wish it might be settled," said the General. "How will you settle?" "O, all we ask is to have all that belongs to us, and to be let alone." "What belongs to you?" "All that has always been acknowledged as ours." "Do you want Missouri?" "Yes, that is ours." "Do you want Kentucky?" "Yes, certainly. The Ohio River has always been considered as the boundary line." "But Kentucky don't want you." "We must have her." "You want all of Virginia?" "Of course." "You want Maryland?" "Most certainly." "What will you do with Washington?" "We don't want it. Remove it if you want to; but Maryland is ours."1 Such was the conversation; and this feeling, that they must have all the Slave States to form a great slaveholding confederacy, was universal in the South. Besides this, they held the people in the Free States in contempt. Even the children of the South were so influenced by the system of slavery that they thought themselves superior to the people of the Free States who worked for a living. I heard a girl, who was not more than ten years old, say that the Northern people were all "old scrubs"! Not to be a scrub was to own slaves, -to work them hard and pay them nothing, -to sell them, to raise children for the market, -to separate mothers from their babes, wives from their husbands, -to live solely for their own interests, happiness, and pleasure, without regard to the natural rights of others. This little girl, although her mother kept a boarding-house, felt that she was too good to play with Northern children, or if she noticed them at all, it was as a superior.

This book was released on 1865 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Following the Flag : From August 1861 to November 1862 with the army of the potomac For more than three years I have followed the flag of our country in the East and in the West and in the South,—on the ocean, on the land, and on the great rivers. A year ago I gave in a volume entitled "My Days and Nights on the Battle-Field" a description of the Battle of Bull Run, and other battles in Kentucky, Tennessee, and on the Mississippi. It has been my privilege to witness nearly all the great battles fought by the Army of the Potomac,—Antietam, Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, at the Wilderness, Spottsylvania, the North Anna, Coal Harbor and at Petersburg. Letters have been received from those who are strangers to me as well as from friends, expressing a desire that I should give a connected account, not only of the operations of that army, from its organization, but of other armies; also of the glorious achievements of the navy in this great struggle of our country for national existence. The present volume, therefore, will be the second of the contemplated series. During the late campaign in Virginia, many facts and incidents were obtained which give an insight into the operations of the armies of the South, not before known. Time will undoubtedly reveal other important facts, which will be made use of in the future. It will be my endeavor to sift from the immense amount of material already accumulated a concise and trustworthy account, that we may know how our patriot brothers have fought to save the country and to secure to all who may live after them the blessings of a free government.

Captain Leboir seized one, Captain Lehay the other, and led the regiment up the hill to the road leading south from Sharpsburg. They found shelter under the wall, and halted. The other regiments of the brigade joined them. Harland found greater opposition. His troops were cut down by a volley from a brigade of Rebels lying in a cornfield. They fought a while, became confused, crowded together, and ere forced back. General McClellan, from his head-quarters, can see all that is going on, for there is an unobstructed view of the field. He is with Fitz John Porter on the high hill east of the Antietam. An officer rides up swiftly. He is Burnside's aid. His horse pants. "I must have more troops and guns. If you do not send them I cannot hold my position half an hour." That is the message. Fitz John Porter has twelve thousand troops. They have been spectators of the battle through the day. They have had breakfast and dinner, and nearly two days of rest since their arrival upon the ground. They might be a thunderbolt at this moment. Couch's and Humphrey's divisions will be up during the night. But they are the only reserves present. Slocum has taken Sedgwick's place. He has not...
