e his work well.
In point of faithful realism there has thus far been nothing better in
the whole war literature."--_Boston Journal_.
"Clever and picturesque.... Over one hundred capital instantaneous
photographs illustrate Mr. Hemment's well-written record, and not the
least of the book's recommendations is the outspoken simplicity of its
style, and the strong impression it makes upon the reader of being the
uninfluenced evidence of an eyewitness who 'draws the thing as he sees
it' and without exaggeration or prejudice."--_Sunday School Times_.
Recollections of the Civil War.
By CHARLES A. DANA. With Portrait. Large 12mo. Cloth, gilt top, uncut,
$2.00.
"The book will rank among the trustworthy sources of knowledge of the
civil war."--_New York Evening Post_.
"Mr. Dana's official position as Assistant Secretary of War while the
rebellion was in progress gave him exceptional opportunities of
observation which he was keen to take advantage of, while his rare gift
of terse and vivid expression enabled him to record what he saw in a
series of pen pictures that are little less than instantaneous
photographs. The feature _par excellence_ of these reminiscences is
their interesting character.... He tells you briefly but graphically
what he saw, heard, or did himself. One gains a very real and personal
knowledge of the war from these recollections."--_Chicago Times-Herald_.
