Book Description
Excerpt from History of the Second Army Corps in the Army of the Potomac When, in 1882, after spending much time in collecting materials, I began to work actively and continuously upon the history of the Second Corps, of the five commanders of that illustrious body of troops four were still living, and ready to give me their valuable suggestions and advice. As I write these closing lines, of the five four are dead. Among the prominent staff-officers of the corps, especially competent to give information of value, the losses have been scarcely less remarkable. Toward the end, therefore, this work has been pushed forward under a painful sense of pressure and emergency. I have almost felt that my task would never be done at all, unless it were done at once. The death of General Warren occurred before this narrative had reached the period during which that brilliant young officer won renown at the head of the Second Corps.

Book Description
Excerpt from The Passing of the Armies: An Account of the Final Campaign of the Army of the Potomac, Based Upon Personal Reminiscences of the Fifth Army Corps These memoirs are based on notes made nearly at the time of the events which they describe. They give what may be called an interior view of occurrences on the front of the Fifth Corps, Army of the Potomac, during the last essay in Grant's Virginia campaign. This was so distinctive in character, conditions, and consequences, that I have ventured to entitle it The Last Campaign of the Armies.

Pages : 378
Book Description
Excerpt from The Army of the Potomac From 1861 to 1863: An Inside View of the History of the Army of the Potomac and Its Leaders as Told in the Official Dispatches, Reports and Secret Correspondence The following pages are a compilation of all the impor tant official reports, dispatches, and correspondence, relating to the formation and movements of one of the largest, grandest, and most magnificent armies which the world had eve-r seen; and, of the actions of the principal actors in that momentous struggle in the life of the nation during the period from 1861 to 1863. The process of research through the tangled mass of official records, and the method of their arrangement; in chronological and narrative form necessarily involved a very great deal of time and labor, embracing as it does the records and correspondence of both the Union and Confederate armies, and forms a concise and accurate his; tory of its movements during that eventful period, as it was recorded from day to day, in regular and consecutive order of events by the actors themselves. No special attention has been given to the particular action or movements of individual army corps, divisions, brigades, or other military subdivisions, as such; the aim has been to treat the respective armies with their com manders, as distinct units, and from their own reports and correspondence, (much of which was secret and never heretofore published, ) much light is thrown on acts. And movements which have in many instances - maybe from their not being clearly understood, -been grossly mis represented.
