THE BRIGADECOMMANDER
——————————
BY J. W. DE FOREST

A writer

John William De Forest (born March 36, 1826, in Seymour,Ct.) at the outbreak of the Rebellion abandoned a promising career as ahistorian and writer of books of travel to enlist in the Union army. He servedthroughout the entire war, first as captain, then as major, and so acquired athorough knowledge of military tactics and the psychology of our war whichenabled him, on his return to civil life, to write the best war stories of hisgeneration. Of these "The Brigade Commander" is Mr. De Forest's masterpiece.Solidly grounded on experience, and drawing its emotive power from our greatestnational cataclysm, like a Niagara dynamo the story sends us a thrillundiminishing with the increasing distance of its source.
