The book begins: It was a bare, plain interior, -the low table at which he sat an unplaned board, his seat a box, made softer by a folded blanket. His only companions were two aides, standing silent beside the closed entrance, anxious to anticipate his slightest need. He will abide in my memory forever as I saw him then, -although we were destined to meet often afterwards, -that old gray hero, whose masterly strategy held at bay for so long those mighty forces hurled on our constantly thinning lines of defense. To me the history of war has never contained his equal, and while I live I shall love and revere him as I can love and revere no other man.
