A Letter To William Howard Russell, On Passages In His Diary North And South is a literary work written by Andrew Dickson White. The book is a critical analysis of William Howard Russell's diary, which he wrote during his travels in the United States during the American Civil War. White's book is a response to Russell's diary, which was published in 1863 and contained his observations and experiences of the war from both the Union and Confederate perspectives.In his letter, White challenges Russell's views on the war and offers his own perspective on the events that took place. He argues that Russell's diary is biased towards the Confederacy and that his reporting was influenced by his sympathy for the southern cause. White also criticizes Russell's portrayal of the Union army and its leaders, whom he believes were unfairly maligned in the diary.The book is an important historical document that sheds light on the attitudes and opinions of the time towards the American Civil War. It provides a valuable insight into the way in which the war was perceived by different individuals and how their views were shaped by their personal beliefs and experiences. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in the history of the American Civil War and the role of the media in shaping public opinion.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
