O knihe

Excerpt from The Golden Horseshoe: Extracts From the Letters of Captain H. L. Herndon of the 21st U. S. Infantry, on Duty in the Philippine Islands, and the Lieutenant Lawrence Gill, A. D. C. To the Military Governor of Puerto Rico

As I read and read again the following correspond ence between two inconspicuous actors in some of the stirring events that have marked the closing year, my impression that these letters constitute a document of history almost indispensable for the understanding of the new era, which began with the Treaty of Paris, grew into a settled conviction. Strong in this belief I spared no effort, and have at last been successful in over coming the natural reluctance of those to whom the letters were addressed, to seeing words, which were written for the information and the consolation of a narrow circle of family and friends, laid bare to the colder scrutiny of the greater public.
