I created the short URLs from a relative URL. No permalink was available. In case the link doesn't work, here's some info to help locate the book:

Note:
Page 270, in the chapter about the Battle of Wauhatchie (near Chattanooga), has a reference to the "charge of the mule brigade," about which a parody of the same name was written.

Here is my short link for that page: http://bit.ly/1908-Oliver-O-Howard-biog-chp26-p470-via-TuftsU.
