Forty-Six Years In The Army is a memoir written by John M. Schofield, an American soldier who served in the United States Army for nearly half a century. The book was published in 1897 and provides a detailed account of Schofield's military career, from his early days as a cadet at West Point to his service in the American Civil War and beyond. Schofield's memoir is divided into chapters that cover different periods of his life and military service. He describes his experiences fighting in the Mexican-American War, his time as an instructor at West Point, and his service in the Union Army during the Civil War. Schofield also discusses his post-war career, including his role as commander of the Department of the Missouri and his service as Secretary of War under President Andrew Johnson. Throughout the book, Schofield provides insights into the challenges and rewards of military service, as well as his thoughts on leadership, strategy, and the role of the military in American society. He also reflects on the political and social issues of his time, including the debate over slavery and the Reconstruction era. Overall, Forty-Six Years In The Army is a valuable historical document that offers a firsthand account of the life and career of one of America's most distinguished soldiers. It provides a unique perspective on the military and political events of the 19th century, and is a must-read for anyone interested in American history or military history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
