Excerpt from The Campaign ChancellorsvilleTo say that Gen. Hooker lapsed into blunders in ex plaining his share in this defeat, is to use a form of words purposely tempered to the memory of a gallant sol dier, who, whatever his shortcomings, has done his country signal service, and to avoid the imputation of baldly throwing down the gauntlet of ungracious criticism. All reference to Gen. Hooker's skill or conduct in this, one of the best conceived and most fatally mismanaged of the many unsuccessful advances of the Army of the Potomac, is made with sincere appreciation of his many admirable qualities, frankly, and untinged by bitterness. But it must be remembered, that Gen. Hooker has left himself on record as the author of many harsh re¿ections upon his subordinates and that to mete out even justice to all requires unvarnished truth.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
