Not illustrated. 1880 edition. Excerpt: ...I need have no fear of rebel bullets, all he required in an orderly was cheek. In that position I seemed to lose all fear of death. Always in the advance, while on the march, with the Sutler's wagon and the ambulance, I took my life in my hand, but seemed to possess a charmed one.

But all chaplains were notlike the one I have mentioned. Some of them were brave, and noble men, who entered the service for the good they might do, never thinking of the salary. As a general thing, however, a chaplain was about as useless a piece of furniture to a regiment as a seven octave sewing machine would be to the naked native of the Fejee Islands. At the bedside of a dying soldier they were sometimes handy, but it was always our luck, when a soldier was about to pass beyond the river, to have the chaplain away attending a nigger ' prayer meeting, or away looking after the spiritual welfare of some planter's chickens, and some rough soldier had to stand by and tell the poor dying boy of the beautiful world beyond where the troops would all be mustered out, and there never would be war any more. There was one thing, however, noticeable in our regiment, and that was that when a soldier died, in the absence of the chaplain, the soldier's friends always succeeded in getting the soldier's watch and money. It may have happened so, but it was noticeable. In time I found that the position...

  • Peck's Uncle Ike and the Red Headed Boy, Also Sunbeams

    Peck George W. (George Wilbu 1840-1916

    Paperback (HardPress Publishing, June 22, 2013)
    Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
  • How Private Geo. W. Peck Put Down the Rebellion: Or, the Funny Experiences of a Raw Recruit

    George Wilbur Peck

    Paperback (Ulan Press, Aug. 31, 2012)
    This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
