Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Union Cause in Kentucky, 1860-1865 I have just concluded my final examination of the several articles prepared by you under the general title of The Union Cause in Kentucky. They are to be commended for the fairness and fulness with which the facts are stated, as well as for the genuine patriotic spirit pervading them all. The survivors of the struggle of 1861 in Kentucky, and equally their descendants, will wish these articles published in book form, and that the book shall go into every library in the country. And they will, I am sure, feel grateful to you for having, after patient investigation and great labor, brought together the facts connected with the defeat by the Kentucky Unionists of the attempt to ally our old State with the Southern Confederacy.
