Présentation de l'éditeur

There exists among the young people of theS outh a widespread ignorance of theW ar of Secession. This is a source of much regret to those who lived through those stirring times and helped to make the glorious record of theS outhern States. Our children, with all the advantages of their schools, are familiar enough with theE nglish wars, but they are profoundly ignorant of the great struggle which shook the very foundations of their own country. They can repeat the victories of Napoleon, but they know nothing of the campaigns of Lee and Johnston. They can recount the exploits of the soldiers of theE evolution, but naught can they tell of that heroic army composed of their own fathers and grandsires that was for four years the admiration of the world. Nor are they to be blamed for this. Until a few years since, all the histories to which they had access were written by Northern men, and if in their brief account of the war between theS tates they spared theS outh some censure, they also withheld any approval of its action or its armies. There was then no source except by tradition from which our young people could learn the history which their fathers made.
