Excerpt from Henry in the War, or the Model VolunteerThe war with Spain, just finished, called out over more of volunteers. As Henry has lived through both the civil strife and this later foreign struggle, he is now a veteran indeed, and a fair representative of our citizen volunteers.My young friends who are acquainted with Don ald and had glimpses in Donald's school-days of the younger of the two boys will, I trust, wel come a continuance of Henry's noticeable career.My promise in my first volume to carry Henry through the Civil War and give a recital of actual campaigns and battles I have carefully borne in mind. In this new effort I have striven to present only the truth of history in all matters of impor tance, while cherishing a great hope of adding something to the attractions and inducements which make boys become manly, upright men.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
