Description
""The Siege of Washington D.C."" by F. Colburn Adams is a historical account of the events that took place during the American Civil War in 1864. The book details the Confederate Army's attempt to capture the city of Washington D.C. and the Union Army's efforts to defend it. The author provides a detailed narrative of the battles, including the Battle of Fort Stevens, as well as the political and social climate of the time. The book also delves into the personal stories of soldiers and civilians caught in the middle of the conflict. Through meticulous research and vivid storytelling, Adams paints a comprehensive picture of the siege and its impact on the nation. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in American history or the Civil War.HERE let me present you, my son, with an exact portrait of the distinguished general who is commonly accepted as striking the first blow of this war. He was kindly educated at the expense of the nation, and was first among its enemies. For a time his fame ran high enough, and timid people were inclined to give him the character of a monster. But it turned out in time that he was a very peaceable gentleman, and not so much of a terrible warrior, after all.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
