f the American Civil War. 12mo. Cloth, $1.00. "Never before have we had the seamy side of glorious war so well depicted.... The action of the story throughout is splendid, and all aglow with color, movement, and vim. The style is as keen and bright as a sword-blade, and a Kipling has done nothing better in this line."--Chicago Evening Post. "There is nothing in American fiction to compare with it....
