Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Oath of Allegiance: And Other Stories
IT was the time of great purposes and small hopes; it was the time Of grand deeds and dark dreams; it was the time of glory and madness, Of love and despair; it was the time of the greatest motives and the noblest achievement, the truest praying and the bitterest suffering that our land and our day have known.
The story which I have to tell, in SO far as it is a story at all, is a tale Of the war, and therefore not in the fashion. It is in such important particulars true that it may ask a respectful hearing, Since, in the matter Of which I have to speak, it will be found that the fact rather than the way Of putting the fact is the source Of interest.
