This book is the second volume of "The Blue and the Gray Series." Like its predecessor, of course, its scenes are connected with the war of the Rebellion; and perhaps the writer ought to be thankful that he is not required in such a work to rise to the dignity of history, but he believes that all his events were possible, and that every one of them has had its parallel in the actual occurrences of the historic period of which he writes. In fact, some of the experiences of the actors in the terrible drama of a quarter of a century ago would pass more readily for fiction than for reality, and detailed on the pages of a story would be deemed impossible by the conservative reader. This book is a Historical Fiction, very nicely penned by the author. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work.

Although it chronicles the exploits of one of the brave, patriotic young men who left their homes of abundance and happiness to serve in the wars for There in danger nation, this book is not entirely a military romance. The story's happenings may be gripping and exciting, but they are also within the realm of possibility and have been amply matched in the experiences of hundreds of the loyal army's brave warriors. Although the author has carefully consulted the "authorities," both loyal and rebel, and has recorded the living words of ardent participants in the thrilling episodes portrayed in this volume, the work does not seek to approach the dignity of a history. He has only focused on the movements in which the hero participated, rather than attempting to provide a comprehensive account of any combat or other army activity. The book is an account of a personal journey that shows how the hero developed a true sense of patriotism and details the dangers and tribulations, battles, and marches that he experienced alongside the hundreds of gallant soldiers who made up the Army of the Potomac.
