Here the hero tells in simple language his own
eventful story. By citations from military dispatches,
Presidential messages, private letters, and
after-dinner speeches, the reader gets many a vivid
picture of life from a master-hand, in terse, narrative
English. The whole impression is that of strength,
candor, and integrity.
