Woven with the Ship: A Novel of 1865

by Cyrus Townsend Brady

  WITH GREAT GUNS AND SMALL

  "A thousand glorious actions that might claim Triumphant laurels, and immortal fame, Confus'd in crowds of glorious actions lie, And troops of heroes undistinguished die."

  ADDISON

  "Who cries that the days of daring are those that are faded far, That never a light burns planet bright to be hailed as the hero's star? Let the deeds of the dead be laurelled, the brave of the elder years, But a song we say, for the men of to-day, who have proved themselves their peers."
