Excerpt from Memoirs of James Curtis MahanDuring the last ten years, my children have often requested me to write an autobiography, or personal memoirs, of my life, embracing sufficient detail to preserve the family record, and also a brief record of important events in our country's history - such as the Civil War, and the part I had in helping to save the Union.There's a Divinity that shapes our ends, rough hew them how we will. The fortune I inherited in early life was not silver and gold, but something of more real worth - good health, good character and a cheerful nature, to start with - and later on, a faithful wife and an honorable family. I, therefore, belong to the class Lincoln said "God must have loved because He made so many of them."About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
