It gives an account of the 1865 Augusta County mass meeting, where citizens voiced their desire for a peaceful resolution. The author, who was chosen to preside over the meeting, made an address on the need for Virginia to declare an end to the war and to strive towards a reorganization of the state government that was in harmony with the Constitution and laws of the United States. The narrative also highlights the efforts of a committee of five, appointed by the meeting, who traveled to Richmond to ascertain the position of the military authorities on the election and assembling of a convention to address Virginia's political future. These efforts paved the way for further organized popular movements and discussions, ultimately leading to the restoration of Virginia to the Union. The book provides an insightful look into the political and social dynamics that shaped Virginia's path towards reconciliation and reintegration after the Civil War.
