Text Appearing Before Image:
thewhole period of the war. . . . His story is not told insensational style, but is a clear, straightforward and veryinteresting narrative of experiences which one would ratherread about than take part in. Mr. Urban has availed him-self of historical records to introduce details which he couldnot know personally, and so make his story more complete.^ From The National Baptist, Philadelphia. It is a good thing to recall some of the experiences oftwenty years ago. We are too apt to treat in a sentimentalway the fearful and wicked war of the rebellion. In thepresent narrative, we are taken back to the days ^ that triedmens souls, and vividly recall the dark aspects of thestruggle. Mr. Urbans narrative is a clear, straightforwardaccount of personal experiences and sufferings; and it is,perhaps, by such individual testimony that we best get atthe heart of the war and understand its real inwardness,its fearful sacrifices, its untold sufferings. We desire forthis volume a large circulation.
