Excerpt from History of the Rebellion: Its Authors and Causes In the long struggle which preceded actual secession, the writer participated. It was his fortune to enunciate the policy of separating the people of the free States and the federal power from the support of slavery, leaving that institution entirely with the States, where it had been left by the patriots who framed the charter of our Union. Messrs. Adams, Slade, and Gates, then members of Congress, sustained the policy; others subsequently united with us; we were Opposed not by reason, or argument, or justice, but by personal detraction, mis representation, insult, threats of violence, and denunciation.

Excerpt from A Complete History of the Great American Rebellion, Embracing Its Causes, Events and Consequences, Vol. 1: With Biographical Sketches and Portraits of Its Principal Actors, and Scenes and Incidents of the War The conflict, though not long in comparison with most of the great wars of History, has, nevertheless, been attended with losses, sufferings and privations, and with changes for the common good, rarely equaled. At the Opening of the great contest, we began to record its most impor tant events, and have, from time to time, corrected the record from official and authoritative sources. We have taken time. It was not our ambi tion to issue the first History of the war, but to wait the full development of particular events before we recorded them.

Excerpt from The Sepoy Revolt: Its Causes Its Consequences Were my book to be written over again, I should like to deepen the colours in which some pictures of Indian life have been painted but the experience which enables a man to write on the subject of Eastern government, tends to blunt his sympathies, and in some degree to injure his moral sense. Torture and lawlessness, and the perpetual suffering of millions, are so familiar to me, that I am conscious of not feeling as I ought to do when wrong is done to individuals and nations. The man who lives in the vicinity of the undertaker and boiler-maker, is not likely to join in the agitation against barrel-organs and street cries.

Excerpt from The Rebellion: Its Consequences, and the Congressional Committee, Denominated the Reconstruction Committee, With Their Action Southern efforts to establish a separate Government having failed, its advocates have submitted in good faith, perfectly convinced of the ruinous course pursued by leading politicians, which has entailed on them the penalty of being heavily taxed to pay the enormous debt created to controvert their efforts; the loss of all their interest in slaves; deprivation forever of their constitutional right to benefit by slave labor; the loss of health, limb and life; and, finally, in most eases, reduced from affluence to insolvency; to all of which they submitted without a murmur. And while the victors insist that the secession ordinances -were nullities, and that they sacrificed billions of money and hundreds of thousands of lives to preserve the Union, that we are out of it, and to be taxed without representation; and yet they do not tell us how we got out, or what is the value of their victory if they failed in its preservation. The great body of those who embarked in the war on the Southern side, particularly the young men, believed they had a right to defend the Southern institutions; that the North designed emancipation in violation of the Constitution. Hence, they committed no moral offence - motive being the gist of all crime. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
