The tragic era pdf

Although he never fired a shot in Vietnam, O'Donnell served in one of the most dangerous roles of the war, all the while using poetry to express his inner feelings and to reflect on the tragedy that was unfolding around him. O'Donnell's life is both a powerful, personal story and a compelling, universal one about how America lost its way in the s, but also how hope can flower in the margins of even the darkest chapters of the American story.

Truly the narrative makes many statues in public squares and parks seem a bit grotesque, as the author, in the preface declared it would. The volume deals with the period from to , from Lincoln's death to the presidency of Hayes, and afterwards - the most tragic in our history. It is an entertaining story Mr. Bowers tells; it holds the interest of the reader, with a firmer grip, from beginning to end, than do his earlier volumes. The book might well have been a great work; indeed, it is a great book, but, unfortunately, with a great defect, from an historical standpoint.

Opening with Lincoln's death, the author has chosen to attempt to treat what he terms the Tragic Era as a thing wholly apart from, and in fact unrelated to the preceding years, - a period which we may term the Lincoln Era - the era of the war upon the South.
