Book excerpt: Excerpt from Incidents and Anecdotes of the Civil War During the Presidency of James Buchanan, and just previous to the inauguration of Mr. Lincoln, I was ordered to the command of the coast-survey steamer Active on the Pacific coast. I could not conceive why I was thus ordered, except that ships and officers were at that period being sent out of the way. This, too, at a time when the Southern States were threatening to secede, and it seemed probable the Government would require the services of all its officers to maintain the integrity of the Union. At that moment I was in a despondent frame of mind, and troubled with the most gloomy forebodings. I felt that a crisis was impending that might inﬂuence all my prospects in life and cast me upon the world without resources and with a large dependent family. I sought consolation by Visiting the houses of Southern members of Congress in Washington whom I knew, but obtained little satis faction from the sentiments I there heard expressed. One night in December, 1860, on my way home from a Visit to Congress, where I had listened to a great deal of incendiary lan guage from Southern members and plenty of Vituperation from Northern ones, a gentleman met me in the street and informed me of the secession of South Carolina.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Anecdotes of the Civil War: In the United States Now that the lapse of time has softened the memories of the great conﬂict, and, beneath the kindly intercourse daily becoming cemented between North and South, the whole country is rapidly growing in prosperity, wealth, and power, the acts of men who were violently assailed in the hour Of heated strife can and ought to be viewed with justice and kindness. Especially is this so in regard to those who are now far enough beyond the reach of criticism - in the unknown world. It is the author's hope that nothing may be found in these papers contrary to that spirit of national charity.

I still have the paper, but nine years after we were married she set her trunk out to sun, and a dog got the biscuit out and ate it. A Confederate in Arkansas wanted to know if it killed the dog. I told him I thought it gave him the hydrophobia, at least he died afterwards. I was badly wounded, in my new hat, in a fight near Som erville, Tenn., Christmas week of 1863. A new hat was a rarity to a Confederate soldier in those times. In writing to me a Yankee who was in the fight wanted to know why I did not pick up another, as there were plenty lying around when they left there.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from War Anecdotes and Incidents of Army Life: Reminiscences From Both Sides of the Conflict Between the North and South "The last man and the last ditch" were common figures of speech during the war, and strangely enough, they were definitely located long after the war itself had closed. On the morning of the Fourth of July, 1866, fifteen months after Lee's surrender, the Secretary of War, who had planned a fishing excursion to the Falls of the Potomac, received a telegram from the provost marshal at Richmond, Va., stating that a squad of Confederate soldiers were at his office ready to deliver up their arms and be amnestied. Knowing that joking of that description would subject the perpetrator to court-martial, he hurriedly went to the White House to consult President Johnson, which resulted in a telegram to the Provost Marshal: "Who are they and where did they come from?" The answer was to the point: "Sergeant Tewksbury and guard from Dismal Swamp. Did not know the war was over." After a good deal of laughter the provost marshal was ordered to receive their capitulation, which was conducted in due form. Tewksbury, an old Virginian, ordered his squad, a couple of Georgians, to give up their guns and sign the papers, reserving himself as the last man to surrender of all the Confederate forces. The old Sergeant's description of the way he ascertained the war was over was amusing. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

We love our reunited country and propose in this volume to tell some facts, for it is history made by Americans, and it is our duty to preserve it for Americans to read.
