Excerpt from History of the Eighteenth Regiment Conn, Vol. 6: Volunteers in the War for the UnionAfter due consideration it was Cleeided to accept as the substance of the pro posed work the author's narrative as originally published, but revised and corrected as the facts demanded. Necessarily the work has progressed slowly, as it has been done with the utmost care, and great credit is due the committee for their patient toil and perseverance to make the history as complete as possible as to facts, names and dates. This task has been a laborious one, attended with many awl even with some unexpected difficulties, as it was found that even the adjutant general's reports were not wholly reliable, and thus much labor and investigation was required to secure accuracy of statement. After all, we fear that the work is far from perfect, mistakes will undoubtedly appear. If, however, it is found that some names are omitted of which honorable mentioned should have been made, or some prominent fact withheld that was especially creditable to those interested and deserving, no one will more deeply regret such a defect than the committee themselves, To have noted all the praise-worthy acts done by this regiment, individually and collectively, would have been an impossibility. With charity for all and malice toward none, the work is now submitted to the favorable regards of worthy comrades who served and suffered in a just and holy cause.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
