Battles for the Union

Captain Glazier has given his attention, in forty-four chapters, to that number of the most important and exciting conflicts of the civil war, including many that are memorable, and will always remain so, for their magnitude,--Antietam, Chickamauga, Malvern Hill, Gettysburg, Vicksburg, etc., and others that are notable for some of the accompanying circumstances, such as Olustee, where the colored boys poured out their blood; Bull Run, whose disasters gave an awakening shock to the nation; Big Bethel, Ball's Bluff, Wilson's Creek, and Chantilly, on whose sad fields successively fell the brilliant Winthrop, the heroic Baker, the intrepid Lyon, and the chivalrous Kearney.
