Description
Excerpt from Four Years With the Army of the Potomac
IN preparing this version of General de Trobriand''s Four Years with the Army of the Potomac, the ''translator has endeavored, so far as possible, faithfully to preserve the sentiments of the author, and the very force of the French idioms themselves.
The story was written soon after the war, from notes and a diary, and the lifelike manner in which are therein told incidents of army life, of the bivouac and of the battle, of the camp and of the field, renews to an old soldier of the East the many weary marches in the time of rain and in the time of hot sun, through the mud and dust of Virginia.
