and aspects of the
conflict. These advantages, together with the count's very thorough
knowledge of military science, justified his attempting a task which, as
it approaches completion, promises to be a splendid success, and which,
so far as it has been carried out, has already received high
commendation from distinguished soldiers and statesmen both in Europe
and America. The work, though voluminous, is sure to find, as it
deserves, many readers. No American professing to be proud of his
country's struggles and achievements can well afford to be ignorant of
its contents. It may be as well to note that the Count fully confides in
the translator's ability to perform his task with care and accuracy.
