A Story of the Great Rebellion 1876 [Hardcover] Author:- Oliver Optic

Excerpt from The Soldier Boy, or Tom Somers in the Army: A Story of the Great RebellionThis volume is not altogether a military romance, though it contains the adventures of one of those noble-hearted and pa triotic young men who went forth from homes of plenty and happiness to fight the battles of our imperilled country. The incidents of the story may be stirring and exciting; yet they are not only within the bounds of probability, but have been more than paralleled in the experience of hundreds of the gal lant soldiers of the loyal army.The work is not intended to approach the dignity of a his tory, though the writer has carefully consulted the authorities, both loyal and rebel, and has taken down the living words of enthusiastic participants in the stirring scenes described in this volume. He has not attempted to give a full picture of any battle, or other army operation, but simply of those move ments in which the hero took a part. The book is a nar rative of personal adventure, delineating the birth and growth of a pure patriotism in the soul of the hero, and describing the perils and privations, the battles and marches which he shared with thousands of brave men in the army of the Po tomac.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
