Synopsis
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.

About the Author
Captain Morris Schaff (1840-1929) was an author and officer in the Army of the Potomac. Gary W. Gallagher, editor of The Myth of the Lost Cause and Civil War History, lives in Charlottesville, Virginia.
Review
Certainly a book to be read both by the student of formal history and by those who take pleasure in the picturesque details both of peace and war. (The Boston Transcript)
Supplemented by a new introduction from Gary W. Gallagher, this work represents a classic example of reconciliationist history that flourished after the war. The author, a veteran Union officer who fought in Virginia, evenhandedly tells how the Civil War came to a graceful conclusion. (Civil War Book Review)
