Excerpt from Reminiscences of Chicago During the Civil War This year's volume of The Lakeside Classics continues the printing of material bearing upon Chicago's history. It has not been the purpose to publish in serial form a complete history of Chicago, but rather to give to the reader brief, intimate glimpses of life in Chicago during its various stages of development, leaving the consecutive and complete relation to the serious historian. This year the subject matter has been drawn from the days immediately preceding, and during the early part o the Civil War. To-day the minds of all of us are filled with the terrible cataclysm of the European War; the years of plotting and counterplotting of diplomats, so that none of us can say with authority what are its real causes, except that they are sordid; and the cruel preparedness that resulted in a great battle within a week of the declaration of war. The following pages will bring to our minds, by contrast, how clearly the Civil War was the spontaneous uprising of a people to a great moral issue, and why, through the absolute lack of a military spirit or preparedness it took four years to weld clerks and workingmen and farmers and school boys into a victorious army.

Excerpt from Bygone Days in Chicago: Recollections of the Garden City of the Sixties As in our national life the old regime is divided from the new by the Civil War of 1861, so in the minds of Chicagoans the city's past is demarcated from the present by the great fire of 1871 In respect to both it is a case of before or after. Happily, the ordeal through which the nation was made to pass, exhausting as it was, left it physically intact; whereas the catastrophe that visited this community came near obliterating it, and in no respect was the destruction more complete, or so ir reparable, as in the matter of records and landmarks. Hence the ante-fire Garden City will exist for the future only as it may be restored from the memories of those who were of it; and while, unfortunately, all too little has been done to revive the Wonder City's past to evoke, amid indigenous surroundings, the masterful men and stir ring events that so distinguish its virile adolescence it is only too true that what is not soon recorded will be lost to future generations without hope of recovery.

From 1861 to 1865, the Civil War raged along the great rivers of the Ohio and Mississippi valleys. While various Civil War biographies exist, none have been devoted exclusively to participants in the Western river war as waged down the Mississippi to the mouth of the Red River, and up the Ohio, the Tennessee and the Cumberland. Based on the Official Records, county histories, newspapers and internet sources, this is the first work to profile personnel involved in the fighting on these great streams. Included in this biographical encyclopedia are Union and Confederate naval officers down to the rank of mate; enlisted sailors who won the Medal of Honor, or otherwise distinguished themselves or who wrote accounts of life on the gunboats; army officers and leaders who played a direct role in combat along Western waters; political officials who influenced river operations; civilian steamboat captains and pilots who participated in wartime logistics; and civilian contractors directly involved, including shipbuilders, dam builders, naval constructors and munitions experts. Each of the biographies includes (where known) birth, death and residence data; unit organization or ship; involvement in the river war; pre- and post-war careers; and source documentation. Hundreds of individuals are given their first historic recognition.

Excerpt from The Nineteenth Illinois: A Memoir of a Regiment of Volunteer Infantry Famous in the Civil War of Fifty Years Ago for Its Drill, Bravery, and Distinguished Services At a Regimental Reunion of the Nineteenth Illinois Volunteer Infantry, held under the auspices of the Regiment's Veteran Club, in Memorial Hall, Chicago, October 13 and 14, 1911, it was unanimously voted to have something in the way of a History, or Memoir, of the old organization prepared and published as soon as possible. The following comrades were present at this meeting: Company A - John E. Vreeland, James Gaffney, John Q. Fergus, Robert R. Sampson, James Bloomfield, Joseph M. Spahn, and J. F. Nelson; Company C - James C. McElhose, Frank Applebee, John Ives, and Miles Martin; Company D - J. Henry Haynie, and John Marshall; Company E - David F. Bremner, John Young, David McArthur, Thomas King, and Thomas H. Agnew; Company F - A. F. Scharf; Company H - John Dedrick, C. Van Order, and John Mereer; Company I - D. B. Morehouse, Howard F. Beardsley, and Charles G. Heath; Company K - George Eckart, James Fenton, Andrew Burns, William H. Christian, Albert Heller, August Brinkman, and William Butler. In the fraternal, yet animated, discussion which prevailed it was stated that such a history had been comtemplated from time to time. Finally, it was fittingly decided that a "Memoir" was a much desired purpose of thus Regimental Reunion, and, toward accomplishing this work, a committee of three were chosen to gather in all information possible. Comrade Haynie, of Company D, now a resident of Newton Center, Massachusetts, - this was his first attendance since the members of the Nineteenth have been holding these gatherings - offered his professional services in the carrying out of this commendable attempt; and, by taking the material thus secured, adding to the same his own researches, knowledge, and recollections, and putting the whole into proper shape for publication, both he and the Committee now have the great pleasure of submitting the results of their joint labors in the present volume.

Excerpt from Reminiscences of a Rebel Notwithstanding the title of this volume, I do not admit that I was ever in any true sense a rebel, neither do I intend any disrespect when I call the Northern soldiers Yankees. The use of these terms is only a concession to the appellations that were customary during the war. It is my purpose to record some recollections of the Civil War, and incidentally to furnish some historical notices of the brigade to which I was attached. Here and there I have expressed, also, some opinions concerning the great events of that dreadful period, some criticisms of the conduct of battles and retreats, and some estimates of the abilities of prominent generals. The incentive to write is of a complex nature. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
