Excerpt from Siege of Washington D. C: Written Expressly for Little People MY publisher gives it as his Opinion that a great many persons will be offended at what I have said in this work. He thinks, also, that quite a number of our great generals will be seriously dis turbed in their dignity on seeing what liberties my artist has taken with them. Such opinions as these are rather too common with publishers in this country, who generally take very narrow views as to what public men think and do. This work was not written to offend, but to amuse and instruct little people. I have too much respect for our great generals to believe that they will feel offended at what I have said of them. Some of our little generals may perhaps take exception to the positions my artist has assigned them, and feel disposed to make war on him. But there will be nothing new in this.
