Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from A Digest of the Military and Naval Laws of the Confederate States, From the Commencement of the Provisional Congress to the End of the First Congress Under the Permanent Constitution: Analytically Arranged
Digest of the Military and Naval Laws of the Confederate States, prepared by Messrs. Lester and Bromwell. It is, in my judgment, a most useful work.
The labor of searching through so many pamphlet copies of the laws, and the uncertainty, at last, as to whether all the legislation on a particular subject has met attention, have been an inconvenience long felt by all, and especially by the depart ments and the committees of Congress.
This work has been prepared with diligence, care, and accuracy. All the legisla tion upon the subjects embraced has been collated under appropriate heads, with marginal notes and references, a table of contents, and a copious index. The facilities which it furnishes to the departments and committees alone would, in my opinion, justify its publication at the expense of the government.
I recommend it to the favorable consideration of the committee.
