Reminiscences Of The War - Tapa blanda

Reseña del editor

The value of his able and efficient services was fully appreciated by these distinguished War Governors of Ohio. In addition to this, Mr. Howbert was entrusted with important duties by the Christian Commission and the Sanitary Commission, two of the humane agencies for ameliorating the conditions of soldiers in the ser. vice ;and in the execution of his duties in this connection, while also acting under the authority of Governors Tod and Brough, he not only ren. dered great service to the soldiers, to the country and to the cause of humanity, but also had opened to him many sources of information, valuable to him in the preparation of this volume, for which work his observation, his reading, his learning and ability have eminently qualified him. At his request this introduction has been prepared, presenting some historical facts, some views, and some principles of constitutional law and of the laws of war, which it is hoped may be found useful, especially to the young men who have been born or reached manhood since the war closed in 1865.
