Excerpt from Mr. Ambrose's Letters on the Rebellion

In the four years of desperate struggle that have gone by, the whole country has remarked how strangely each stroke of war smote the mind of the people with a new conception of the issue to which they were giving their strength. Each year brought a new phase to the conﬂict, every month unexpected change in its direction, new interpreta tion of its mysteries, stronger conviction of the power that shaped its course.

Excerpt from Mr. Ambrose's Letters on the Rebellion

These letters of Mr. Paul Ambrose were written at intervals, as their dates will show, from the close of the second year of the Civil War down to the restoration of peace after the surrender of Lee. They were addressed to the author's old friend, Mr. Seaton, of the "National Intelligencer," and, with the exception of the last, were published in that paper. The topics they bring into discussion are those suggested by the principles and incidents of the rebellion as these rose to view in the rapid transit of events. In the study of these topics the reader will not fail to remark how gradually and sharply the destined plot of this great drama was developed, from day to day, in the progress of what we might call the ripening of a wonderful revolution in the political and social character of the nation.

Mr. Ambrose has endeavored to explore the secret motives which impelled a class of politicians in the South, not without some effective cooperation from auxiliaries both in the North and West, to contrive the overthrow of the Union.
