This historic book may have numerous typos and missing text. Purchasers can usually download a free scanned copy of the original book (without typos) from the publisher. Not indexed. Not illustrated. 1863 edition. Excerpt: ... CHAPTER IX. Buenside's Change Of Base. As the telegraph wires flashed through the land the words of the simple, manly address in which M'Clellan took leave of his army, they told also that his successor assumed his new charge "with diffidence;" and men naturally inquired on what grounds he had been chosen for so weighty a post. A few months earlier, Burnside had only been known as one of the most fortunate of the many retired military men, whom the commission of a State Governor had suddenly elevated from obscurity into the rank of a general officer. His six years of former employ as subaltern in the regular army, would bear no comparison with the long and active service which Sumner and Hooker had seen previous to this war; even should no regard be paid to the severe trials they had passed through with honour in the late campaigns. Nor were his political principles more acceptable to the Cabinet than theirs, he being, at that time nominally a Democrat. But he had the advantage of his name being unconnected with the disasters which had befallen the armies of the Potomac and Virginia. His easy conquests of Roanoke and Newbern--small posts on the coast of North Carolina--had been magnified, by contrast with other men's defeats, into great achievements.

A Military View of Recent Campaigns in Virginia and Maryland (Classic Reprint) by Charles Cornwallis Chesney Pdf

Excerpt from A Military View of Recent Campaigns in Virginia and Maryland This book is not offered to the Public as a complete history of the campaigns of which it treats. The Author would consider the task of composing such a work to be greatly beyond his powers, even were it possible for him to have gathered already the necessary material. But there is a peculiarity accompanying the whole progress of the American civil war, which enables it to be discussed in a way that no other such contest has been. For every phase of its greater events - at least of those occurring near the two capitals - has been witnessed and described by numerous observers of different nations, and of every class of opinion.
