Book excerpt: Excerpt from Three Daughters of the Confederacy: The Story of Their Loves and Their Hatreds, Their Joys and Their Sorrows, During Many Surprising Adventures on Land and Sea Two of the lovers of this trio of girls which I have so proudly and affectionately championed in these pages were Northern men: one a sailor and the other a sort of non-combatant, but a good fellow, nevertheless. The third hero, who won the last girl, was Southern in every fibre of his being. Two of the girls loved the South, with all the passionate fervor for which the Southern woman was famous; the third was but a lukewarm daughter after all. Yet in other ways she was such a nice girl that I pray for her the charitable judgment of the feminine - I know the masculine will agree with me in think ing her an altogether pleasing young person. For the rest, there is not much history and but little fighting hereafter; but there is plenty of love mak ing, and not a little fun, mingled with the ad venture. Tears follow, of course, and the clouds of the havoc making days, but the light of affection always pro vides a silver lining, and everything, as did the great war itself, comes out happily in the end. Take my word for it, anxious reader, and look not at a final page until you come to it in due course. Of all the novels and romances that I have written, those of the Civil War have met with the warmest welcome and have elicited the highest praise. May you begin this volume with pleasant anticipation; may you read it with increasing satisfaction; and may you put it aside finally, as I do this preface, with a feeling of regret that there is no more of it!
