From the Earth to the Moon
by Jules Verne
During the War of the Rebellion, a new and influential club was established in the city of Baltimore in the State of Maryland.

Simple tradesmen jumped their counters to become extemporized captains, colonels, and generals, without having ever passed the School of Instruction at West Point: nevertheless, they quickly rivalled their compeers of the old continent, and, like them, carried off victories by dint of lavish expenditure in ammunition, money, and men.
