Description
1900. From the Preface: In the course of my annual visit to St. Louis, in the spring of 1886, I gave four lectures in the great theater of the Exposition Building, in aid of the fund for erecting a monument to General Grant. These lectures touched upon many of the points treated in chapters 1-8 of the present work, ending with the battle of Chattanooga. It is pleasant to remember the warm interest shown in the lectures by General Sherman, who presided on each occasion, and enlivened the suppers which followed with his abounding good-fellowship and his flashes of quaint wit. Those were evenings not to be forgotten. The lectures-illustrated with maps, diagrams, views of towns and fortresses, landscapes and portraits, with the aide of the stereopticon-were given during two years in many cities north of Mason and Dixon's line, from Lewiston in Maine to Portland in Oregon...In preparing this narrative I have had due recourse to the abundant printed sources of information, and owe much besides to personal association with many of the actors.
