This monograph details all the ins-and-outs of the confiscation of a set of silver service borrowed from New Orleans’ Christ Church by a friend of Mrs. Benjamin Butler and never returned. Along with an account of all the unsuccessful efforts to retrieve the silverware—an episode that earned Gen. Butler his enduring nickname--“Spoons” Butler. In protective sleeves.[jp][ph:L]
