Book synopsis

Excerpt from The Captivity of General Corcoran: The Only Authentic and Reliable Narrative of the Trials and Sufferings Endured, During His Twelve Months' Imprisonment in Richmond and Other Southern Cities A little more than a year ago, he left New York City in, command of the gallant Sixty Ninth, to fight, and, if necessary, to die for the beloved land of his adoption. His greatest gratification was to lead his men into battle bearing side by side the Star Spangled Banner of his American home, and the Emerald Standard of his Native isle. And many a time, while confined in a loathsome South ern dungeon, and treated with peculiar indignity and unusual severity not only on account of his loyalty to the Union, but also of his nationality, he has reverted with pleasure, and yet sorrow, to the day on which he was captured.
