Synopsis
Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact.

Présentation de l'éditeur
The year 1861 will be remembered as one of the most extraordinary in the history of the United States. The hideous monster, Secession, spread its venomous poison over the country. Oh, that we had a Jackson to put his iron heel upon the monsters head, and save our bleeding country the anguish for four long years, of the greatest rebellion of modern times. The telegraph flashed the sad news to every city, town and ham let in the land, that theS tars andS tripes had been insulted and trailed in the dust, and that, too, by men who called themselves A mericans. But they will pay dearly for their rashness. Oh! what memories crowd upon me when I read how heroically the gallant band of seventy Patriots, under the brave A nderson, stood out against seven thousand traitors, atF ortS umpter, and not until the last shot was fired did they surrender. Grand Rapids responds to the first call of the President for sev enty-five thousand men, and begins to raise a regiment. I am no native A merican, but will enlist to help chastise the enemies of my adopted country, which I pride myself to love second to none. A ccordingly, at the age of eighteen I find myself enrolled in our good old Uncle Sam sarmy, and encamped on the Fair Grounds in the beautiful Valley City, ready to march to the defence of ourN ation sC apitol. On the 12th of June, 1861) we file out of our camp, to commence our trip to the front, some never to return to the weeping loved ones left behind.
