Lee and His Cause Or the Why and the How of the War Between the States

Excerpt from Lee and His Cause: Or the Why and the How of the War Between the States<br><br>The matter here presented to the reader was first given as a "Memorial Day" Address, before Confederate Veteran Camps, and Chapters of the Daughters of the Confederacy, in several cities and towns. Its original use has modified its final form; whilst to embody more of historic fact, and so enhance the permanent value, its limits have been largely expanded.<br><br>There are many and worthy "Lives of Lee," and some excellent "Histories of the United States," and still more abundant "Sketches of Battles and Minor Engagements," with almost innumerable "Narratives of Generals," and of "Commands and Campaigns." Many of these are large and expensive, too heavy for handling and too costly for wide circulation, and their readers are correspondingly few and well to do. This is quite unlike any of those.<br><br>About the Publisher<br><br>Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
