Book Description
Excerpt from Thanksgiving Sermon Preached in the Presbyterian Church at Harlem, November 27, 1862 For these blessings, and ten thousand more, small and great, that we cannot number, we should be base and ungrateful not to'give thanks even in times like these. And yet, will not a true Christian philosophy go even beyond this, and note the blessings that are mingled with our griefs. Even in this war that is now upon us, he 1s blind who does not read w some of its. Darkest features the handwriting of the God of Jove. The blackest cloud has often its silver lining; a golden crown isoften fitted to the brow of the thunder-head, showing that a bright sun yet shines, and when the storm is past, clearer skies and purer air will come.

Excerpt from The Nation's Duty: A Thanksgiving Sermon, Preached in the Third Presbyterian Church, Pittsburgh, Thursday, November 27, 1862 The scene lacked the sublimity and awfulness Of that at Sinai, when the mount glowed with the fire Of God and trembled at the presence of his power; but it was peculiarly solemn and impressive, and well calculated to fix in the hearts Of the children Of Israel the covenant into which they ther'e entered. After having repeated the words Of the covenant, Moses charged them, by all that they held dear on earth, by all that they hoped for their children and their children's children, by the blessing and the curse Of God, to keep it inviolate. In the midst Of this solemn charge Occur the words Of my text: The secret things belong unto the Lord our God: but those things which are revealed belong unto us and to our children for ever, that we may do all the words Of this.

A More Civil War
Author: D. H. DilbeckPublisher: UNC Press Books
ISBN: 1469630524
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 225
Book Description
During the Civil War, Americans confronted profound moral problems about how to fight in the conflict. In this innovative book, D. H. Dilbeck reveals how the Union sought to wage a just war against the Confederacy. He shows that northerners fought according to a distinct "moral vision of war," an array of ideas about the nature of a truly just and humane military effort. Dilbeck tells how Union commanders crafted rules of conduct to ensure their soldiers defeated the Confederacy as swiftly as possible while also limiting the total destruction unleashed by the fighting. Dilbeck explores how Union soldiers abided by official just-war policies as they battled guerrillas, occupied cities, retaliated against enemy soldiers, and came into contact with Confederate civilians. In contrast to recent scholarship focused solely on the Civil War's carnage, Dilbeck details how the Union sought both to deal sternly with Confederates and to adhere to certain constraints. The Union's earnest effort to wage a just war ultimately helped give the Civil War its distinct character, a blend of immense destruction and remarkable restraint.
