Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pictorial History of the War for the Union, Vol. 2 of 2: A Complete and Reliable History of the War From Its Commencement to Its Close It is true I might have abandoned my communications and pushed forward toward Richmond, trusting to the Speedy defeat of the enemy and the consequent fall of the city, for a renewal of supplies; but the approaches were fortified, and the town itself was surrounded with a strong line of intrenchments, requiring a greater length of time to reduce than our tr00ps could have dispensed with rations.
