Excerpt from The Army of Northern Virginia in 1862
The concluding chapter of this book was the author's last work on earth, and it cheered his dying hours to know that his task was accomplished. There remained, however, much to be done, to prepare the manuscript for publication, and I wish to record, within these covers, my gratitude to Colonel Allans friend and successor, Mr. Duncan C.Lyle, of McDonogh, Maryland, without whose generous and painstaking help it could hardly have been done; and to Mr. John C. Kopes, of Boston, who, amid the pressing activities of a busy life, gave such kind and valuable assistance.
