“It is a history of the war that will become more valuable as time passes, for it is, in its pictures, an unimpeachable record of events.”—Cleveland Plain Dealer.

RECOLLECTIONS OF THE CIVIL WAR. By CHARLES A. DANA. With Portrait. Large 12mo. Cloth, gilt top, uncut, $2.00.

“Out of his rich material Mr. Dana has woven a marvelous narrative.... Written, as the book is, in Mr. Dana’s inimitable English, it is worthy to rank with the autobiography of Grant in the list of the really great works which will bear down to posterity the true story of the great war for freedom and for the Union.”—Boston Journal.

“It is a book filled with vitality and warm with strong life. It tells history in the strongest and most impressive manner, and the personality of the writer gives it an additional interest. It is one of the valuable books of the year.... It is sincere even in its prejudices; the most original and enduring work of a strong thinker. The book is a most important contribution to the history of the civil war; it is readable from first page to last, and its vitality will outlast that of more elaborate works on the same subject.”—Boston Saturday Evening Gazette.

“The book will rank among the trustworthy sources of knowledge of the civil war.”—New York Evening Post.

“As interesting as a novel.”—Buffalo Commercial.

“The book is one of absorbing interest.”—Providence Journal.
