註釋
"There is a certain fascination in the question, 'How do events early in life affect a person's later behavior?' For those who study the Seminole Wars, the question usually concerns some famous Civil War general and his experiences in Florida. Contained in this book are the names of 377 US. Army officers who served in both conflicts, accompanied by a list of those who also served in the War with Mexico. Each entry contains a short biographical sketch, and almost 80% include photographs, allowing you to look into the eyes of men who made history. Interspersed within the book are several works of art by entrants who were also accomplished artists.Yet this is more than just a list of names and places. Each one of the men listed in this book lived a dangerous, difficult, and exciting life. A significant number suffered from a debilitating disease, or an injury contracted in the line of duty. There are 377 fascinating stories in this book. All you need do is read between the lines and use your imagination."--Back cover.
