The most interesting and exciting book ever
published, embracing Mr.. Richardson's unpar-
allelled experience for four years. Travelling
through tho South in the secret service Of the
'"rribune" at the outbreak OF the war, with our
armies and fleets, both East and Wost, during
the first two years of the Rebellion; his thrilling
capture; his confinement for twenty months In
seven different Rebel PRISONS his escape, and
almost MISUNDERSTANDING by night OF 400 miles
1t will abound in stirring events, and contain
more of the fact, incident, and romance Of the
war, than any other work yet published. Hor-
ace Greedy says OF 1t;
"a great any books will yet be written con-
corning this war; in addition to the many al
ready ia print; but not one of them will give,
within a similar compass, clearer fuller, more
reliable account, entirely from personal obser-
walton, of the nature, animus, purposes. tend
encies, and instrumentalities of the slayehold-
ers' Rebellion, than does the unprctcnding nara
tive of Mr.. Richardson"
Teachers ladies, encrjetc Young men, and
especially returned aud disabled officers and
soldiers, in want of profitable employment, will
find it particularly adapted to their condition.
