Plot

First published in 1863, a first-hand account of an episode of the American Civil War. "The expedition, in the daring of its conception, had the wildness of a romance; while in the gigantic and overwhelming results it sought and was likely to accomplish, it was absolutely sublime."--Official Report of Hon. Judge Holt to the Secretary of War."It was all the deepest laid scheme, and on the grandest scale, that ever emanated from the brains of any number of Yankees combined."--Atlanta "Southern Confederacy" of April 15th, 1862.
