Book Description
Excerpt from Military Servitude and Grandeur The book on our own great war has not been written. We are still too close to events to see them in their just light. Time and meditation will be necessary to produce such a volume. But, anxious that the American public should better comprehend how pure and profound are the sources of French patriotism, I have asked the George H. Doran Company to publish this volume. Though first brought out in 1835, it containsuso much that is analogous to the spirit that has inspired our modern heroes that iti might almost be called a war book.
