Book synopsis

Excerpt from Memorial of Lieutenant Howard M. Burnham: United States Army, Who Fell in the Battle of Chicamauga, Tenn;, September 19th, 1863 The large proportion of youth, that have fought and fallen in this war, will ever lend to its history a tender interest. And yet these youthful heroes, as a general rule, were not like the Spartan, born and bred for warriors. No mother had her infant, at birth, laid naked in a shield, with the words, "either with this or upon this," as its motto for life; and no father afterwards led his boy to the altar, and made him there swear eternal hatred to his hereditary foe. This gigantic conflict found our population versed, mainly, in the arts of peace. Almost every boy, indeed, might know something of the famous generals, and battles of the world, and have his young soul stirred with legends of the knight errant and crusader.
