Excerpt from The Lost Cause: A New Southern History of the War of the Confederates

We take pleasure in presenting the Fifty-third Thousand - a new and enlarged edition - of the Lost Cause, with the assurance that it is the latest and most complete History of the War published. The entire work has been written since the close of the war, and is brought down to the release of President Davis (May, 1867). The value and importance of this work have also been greatly increased by the addition of a new and comprehensive map of the military operations during the war of 1861-5 (arranged expressly to accompany the present edition), giving all the important battle-fields (in colors), all the railroads, State and county lines, and making the most complete and reliable map of the kind published.
