We do not hesitate to advise our friends to buy the book, and we predict for it a wide sale. As the authors cite Southern Historical Society papers as among the authorities they have consulted, it may not be gracious in us to say so, yet we feel impelled to add that military critics will not be impressed with their citation of either Lossing or Pollard as authority on any mooted point. After we have studied the book we propose to give, in a full review, our impressions of this first attempt to blend in authorship The Blue and the Gray.
