During the past ten years, many narratives have beenpublished, detailing the sufferings of Federal prisoners inthe late War of the Rebellion. They have, for the mostpart, been confined to accounts of the personal experienceof the writers in the several prisons in which they wereconfined, and many of them exhibit vivid pictures of thehorrible condition to which they were reduced by thepolicy of their captors.
