Description
On the 12th of April, 1865, the Army of Northern Virginia marched to the field in front of Appomattox Court-House, stacked their arms, folded their colors, and walked empty handed to find their distant, blighted homes.
These are detailed and moving first-hand accounts from a number of prominent witnesses to Robert E. Lee's surrender of the Army of Northern Virginia at Appomattox. Accounts from:
Major-General Wesley Merritt, USA
Major-General John Gibbon, USA
Colonel Charles Marshall, Aide-de-cainp and Military Secretary to General R. E. Lee.
Brigadier-General E. P. Alexander, CSA
Lt. General James Longstreet, CSA
General Phil Sheridan, USA
Lt. General Ulysses S. Grant
Also included is "the famous telegram," which informed President Lincoln of Lee's surrender.
A must have for any Civil War buff!
