Synopsis
Excerpt from The Second Year of the War
IN presenting a second volume of a popular History of the Southern War for Independence, the author gratefully acknowl edges the kind reception by the Southern public of his first volume, the generous notices of the independent Press of the Confederacy, and the encouragement of friends. He has no disposition to entreat criticism or importune its charities. But he would be incapable of gratitude, if he was not sensible of the marks of public generosity which have been given to a work which made no pretensions to severe or legitimate history, and ventured upon no solicitations of literary success.
