This book was released on 2015-06-29 with total page 398 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Personal Recollections of the War of the Rebellion This fourth volume of papers and sermons comprises papers presented at the banquets which follow the regular stated meetings of the Commandery, and sermons preached before the Commandery, as a part of the annual Church service which, during the past few years, has been held in commemoration of the surrender at Appomattox on April 9, 1865, an event that brought peace within our borders and that cemented once more the union of States comprising our great Republic. One object of the foundation of this Order, set forth in our Constitution, is - "to cherish the memories and associations of the war waged in defence of the unity and indivisibility of the Republic..." There is no way in which this result can be more effectually accomplished than by bringing together the personal recollections of those who took part in that great struggle. These narratives of personal experiences are interesting, not only because they bring us in contact with events of which the narrators themselves were a part, but also because, as a relation of facts and incidents based upon the personal observations and experiences of participants, they bring us much closer to the actual events of the War of the Rebellion than the more formal statements of the professional historian. Many of the incidents referred to, which are more or less of a personal character, would never have become matter of record but for these papers, nevertheless they give life to the accounts that are presented in the official reports. New York, February, 1912. The seeming paragon; To whom the better elements And kindly stars have given A form so fair, that, like the air, 'Tis less of earth than heaven.

This book was released on 2018-01-31 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from My Recollections of the War of the Rebellion The incidents related in this little volume are chiefly confined to the regiment and batterv to which I belonged, and yet what. Is true of one organization whether in camp or in the field, is to a certain extent, true of others. The drill, the guard duty and the camp sports are essentially the same, and since war means killing, the methods adopted for this purpose in every action, are practicallv the same. The Twenty-third Maine Regiment served its term of enlistment in doing guard dutv on the Potomac, from Alexandria to Harper's Ferry. It had no en gagcment with the enemy, and yet the death rate was uncommonly large, thereby indicating the character of its service The Seventh Maine Battery joined the army of the Potomac in the march to the Wilder ness, and participated in all the subsequent engage ments of that gallant army. There were a number of men, including the writer, who served in both of these organizations and had the varied experience incident to both. There were no two organizations that left the State to aid in putting down the rebel lion, that contained a greater proportion of first class men than the two under consideration. Besides a large number of independent farmers, there were college graduates, merchants, mechanics. Teachers and other professional men. They enlisted from purely patriotic motives, and served with an eye single to the preservation of the Union. More than thirty years have elapsed since the regiment was organized, and many 'of those who survived the war, have since gone the way of all the earth. The scope oi this work will admit of only brief mention of any of them, but if such brief mention shall in any manner serve to keep green their memories and preserve the record of their sacrifices and heroic deeds, its preparation and its publication will not have been in vain.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Rebellion, Vol. 1 of 8 The earth has been cursed with civil wars from the earliest times in which we have records of the race. Though characterized by more or less ferocity, and assuming various shapes, they all may be divided into two general classes. Those that occur under a despotic form of government, spring from oppression which the people, no longer able to bear, venture all the terrible hazard of a resolution to throw off. Those that take place under a democratic form of government, are brought about by a few ambitious men, who seek by faction to obtain power. Those of the former class possess dignity and grandeur, from the fact that they are based on the great doctrine of human rights. Man asserting his inherent, God-given rights on the battle field against overwhelm ing odds, is a sublime spectacle. The latter are based on falsehoods, and kept alive by deception. Such were the civil wars of the early republics. In the time of Cromwell, both religious. And civil liberty were the grand prizes of the struggle; and whether we look at Hampden, calmly suffering for the sake of liberty, or at Cromwell's Ironsides, sweeping like a thunder cloud to battle, with the fearful war cry, religion, on their lips, our deepest sympathies and admiration are excited, and we forget the horrors of the carnage in the mighty stake at issue. So in the bloody revolution of France; though the views of the masses were vague, and their speech often incoherent, yet when we behold inscribed on their banner the great charter of human rights, and the head of a king thrown down as the gage of battle, we no longer see the crimson field with its garments rolled in blood, we see only the divine image of human liberty hovering over it.

Download or read book The Literature of the Rebellion (Classic Reprint) written by John Russell Bartlett and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-06 with total page 490 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Literature of the Rebellion In preparing this Bibliography of the Rebellion, the compiler has been at a loss where to begin his labors, inasmuch as events of great importance, which occurred long before the outbreak, had a direct bearing upon it, and require notice. The Raid at Harper's Ferry by John Brown; the contest for Freedom in Kansas; the working of the Fugitive Slave Law; the Missouri Compromise, and the long struggle between the Slave and Free States from the very adoption of the Federal Constitution, which finally culminated in the rebellion, - all seem to be a preparation for this event. With this view of the subject, the compiler has deemed it best that his catalogue should cover the whole ground of these several events, and should, consequently, include works relating to American Slavery. The historians of the rebellion, generally, have taken the same view, and have covered the field, beginning with the adoption of the Constitution in their preliminary remarks. But, although it was determined to embrace works on this subject in the catalogue, it is, in this respect, far from complete, as the compiler did not commence till recently to collect works on American Slavery. But, notwithstanding the deficiencies in this department, he believes that his catalogue contains more titles on the subject than can be found elsewhere. The catalogue will be found to include titles of the following: 1. Books and Pamphlets relating to the Rebellion, and to topics connected therewith, published in the United States and Europe. 2. Congressional Reports; Reports and Documents from the Departments of the War and the Navy; Proceedings of Courts Martial; Communications from the Executive of the United States; Speeches in Congress, and all other publications of the general government, 1861-63, relating to the war. 3. Official publications of the several States covering the period of the war, - 1861 to 1865, - embracing Messages of Governors; Reports of Adjutant and Quartermaster Generals; Rosters of Volunteers; Documents and Reports relative to Volunteers, Bounties, the Draft, etc. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Freedom Triumphant: The Fourth Period of the War of the Rebellion From September, 1864 to Its Close In this volume, as in all that have preceded it, I have endeavored to divest myself of prejudice; to place myself, as far as it is possible for one who was an observer of the great conflict and loyal to the Union, in the position of those who were fighting for the establishment of the Con federacy. I recognize their sincerity, valor, bravery, endurance, suffer ing, achievements, and triumphs; I hold out to them fraternal hands, have but one wish - that love, peace, prosperity, and the best blessings of Heaven may rest upon them forever. I write to set forth the truth of history, and have endeavored to present only authentic statements. It will be for the historian of the future to place a correct estimate upon the motives of the actors, and the parts performed by them in this great historic drama.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from History of the Rebellion: Its Authors and Causes In the long struggle which preceded actual secession, the writer participated. It was his fortune to enunciate the policy of separating the people of the free States and the federal power from the support of slavery, leaving that institution entirely with the States, where it had been left by the patriots who framed the charter of our Union. Messrs. Adams, Slade, and Gates, then members of Congress, sustained the policy; others subsequently united with us; we were Opposed not by reason, or argument, or justice, but by personal detraction, mis representation, insult, threats of violence, and denunciation.

Insults, sneers, misrepresentations of facts, abuse of their public men, false prophecies of their ruin, extravagant praise of their enemies, and undis guised joy at their reverses, seem to me well adapted to create so much hatred between the two nations, that the smallest wrong or even affront on either side might lead to war.
