To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Such is the history of the campaign, substantiated by documents written du- ring the operations and hereto append- ed, which has been misunderstood to an extent perhaps unparalleled in the his- tory of warfare. I submit it here to the public judgment, with all confidence that it will be fairly and deliberately considered, and a just verdict pronounc- ed upon it and upon the army engaged in it. Upon such unbiased judgment I am very willing (setting aside any previ- ous record I have made durin...g the war) to rest my reputation as a soldier. I shall submit cheerfully to the verdict of my countrymen ; but I desire that that verdict shall be rendered upon a full knowledge of the facts. "I well understood, . As does every military man, how difficult and how thankless was the duty devolved upon me, and I am not ashamed to say that I would gladly have avoided it, if I could have done so consistently with my sense of duty to the Government. " To confront with a small army vastly superior forces ; to fight battles without hope of victory, but only to gain time and to embarrass and delay the forward movement of the enemy, is of all duties the most hazardous and the most difficult which can be imposed upon any general or any army.
