Excerpt from Army Life on the Pacific: A Journal of the Expedition Against the Northern Indians, the Tries of the Cœur D''alenes, Spokans, and Pelouzes, in the Summer of 1858
North Pacific Indians, with which our present story is concerned, brought suffering, death - but no glory - to our men.
During this period, many men, destined to attain high rank in 1861-65, were lieutenants and captains, in fact, almost all those names with which we became familiar as of Civil War leaders, with the sole exception of Grant, who had left the Army, - are so found: a number of them in the story we here give.
The original is now a scarce book, and we are glad to thus bring it before a new generation of readers, as the only full record of a period with which they can hardly be familiar, not described as it is in any of the general histories.
