Excerpt from The War Stonewall Jackson His Campaigns and Battles the Regiment as I Saw Them The performance of this work though unavoidably deferred, is a duty I have long since felt incumbent upon myself as well as others who can and care to do so, to give to our coun try the benefit of our testimony as we saw it, of the achievements, sufferings and sacrifices through which our com rades and country passed in those eventful years before the same shall fade from our 'memory. Our ranks are rapidly thinning and soon there will be none left to tell the tale, hence the importance of the testimony of ac tors who yet live. From their direct testimony truth can be reached by the future historian. It is becoming inus and we do revere the memory of our dead comrades, thousands of whom sleep in unknown graves, and their achievements and devotion to the cause they believed to be just have almost been forgotten. Yet while the ques tions involved in the War were for ever settled and so accepted in good faith by the people of the South, it is the duty of the survivors to preserve from oblivion the names and deeds of their dead comrades. To this end this narrative, for whatever it is worth, has been written. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books. Find more at ...
