Excerpt from John Sherman's Recollections of Forty Years in the House, Senate and Cabinet: An Autobiography These volumes do contain the true history of the chief financial measures of the United States government during the past forty years. My h0pe is that those who read them will be able to correct the wild delusions of many honest citizens who became infected with the greenback craze, or the free coinage of silver. My chief regret is that the limit of these volumes did not permit me to extend my narrative to the memorable battles and marches of the Civil War, nor to a more general notice of my associates who distinguished themselves in civil life. The omission of military narrative is admirably compensated by the memoirs of the great commanders on either side, and better yet by the vast collection and publication, by the United States, of the Records of the Rebellion. The attempt to include in these volumes my estimate of distinguished men still living who participated in the events narrated would greatly extend them and might lead to injustice.
