The Autobiography of Oliver Otis Howard is a compelling and detailed memoir written by the American Civil War general and founder of Howard University, Oliver Otis Howard. The book chronicles Howard's life from his early childhood in Maine to his service in the Union Army during the Civil War and his subsequent career in the military and as a philanthropist. Howard's memoir provides a unique perspective on the Civil War, as he was involved in some of the most significant battles and campaigns of the conflict, including the Battle of Chancellorsville and the Battle of Gettysburg. He also served as the commander of the Freedmen's Bureau, working to aid newly freed slaves during the Reconstruction era. Throughout the book, Howard reflects on his personal and professional experiences, including his struggles with his own faith and his relationships with his family and colleagues. He also discusses his involvement in the Indian Wars of the late 19th century and his efforts to improve the lives of Native Americans through education and social reform. Overall, The Autobiography of Oliver Otis Howard is a fascinating and insightful account of a remarkable life, offering readers a glimpse into the mind of a man who played a significant role in shaping American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
