The author of this series has made it his special object to confine
himself very strictly, even in the most minute details which he
records, to historic truth. The narratives are not tales founded
upon history, but history itself, without any embellishment or any
deviations from the strict truth, so far as it can now be
discovered by an attentive examination of the annals written at the
time when the events themselves occurred. In writing the
narratives, the author has endeavored to avail himself of the best
sources of information which this country affords; and though, of
course, there must be in these volumes, as in all historical
accounts, more or less of imperfection and error, there is no
intentional embellishment. Nothing is stated, not even the most
minute and apparently imaginary details, without what was deemed
good historical authority. The readers, therefore, may rely upon
the record as the truth, and nothing but the truth, so far as an
honest purpose and a careful examination have been effectual in
ascertaining it.
