"The Bull-Run Rout" by Edward Henry Clement is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The book recounts the events surrounding the first major battle of the American Civil War, specifically emphasizing the psychological and emotional state of those involved leading up to and during the conflict. It provides an intimate perspective on the experiences of soldiers and civilians during this pivotal time in American history. The narrative focuses on the author's brother's journey to recover the body of a fallen soldier during the tumultuous times preceding the Battle of Bull Run. It vividly portrays the confusion and naïveté of the public as they faced the reality of war, contrasting early optimism with the harsh truths revealed on the battlefield. Through personal anecdotes, including the account of a young boy witnessing the chaotic retreat after the battle, the book illustrates the collective shock and disillusionment as soldiers and their families grappled with the brutal impact of the Civil War.
