Dispatch notice of BATTLE-PIECES

From the New York Dispatch, September 2, 1866:

BATTLE PIECES. By Herman Melville.
Harper & Brothers, publishers.

The contents of this little volume, the writer tells us in his preface, originated in an impulse imparted by the fall of Richmond. As a memento of the various battles of the Rebellion, it will be valued, especially by those who participated in the fights of which the poet so melodiously sings.
