Saving the Union: My Days with Lincoln and Stanton (Annotated)
No military man met more often with Abraham Lincoln and Edwin Stanton than Major-General Edward Davis Townsend. A West Point graduate and an adjutant in Washington, D.C. during the American Civil War, his anecdotes and stories about events and people are some of the most fascinating observations of anyone who was there. He personally read the dispatch to General Scott relating the fall of Fort Sumter. His remarks on Scott's loyalty and the death of Edwin Stanton are not found elsewhere. His contribution is a wonderful addition to the corpus of Civil War literature. Front-line letters and diaries of the Civil War bring an immediacy to a long-ago event and connect us to these everyday men and women who lived it. For less than you'd spend on gas going to the library, this long out-of-print volume is available as an affordable, well-formatted book for e-readers and smartphones.
