Every Picture Tells a Story,
By Along Red River of the North "JMS" (Moorhead, MN) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Faces of the Civil War: An Album of Union Soldiers and Their Stories (Hardcover)
Even casual readers about the U.S. Civil War have seen the haunting images of young soldiers staring stiffly into thecamera for posterity. About to embark into a war of unimagined horror, few of their particular stories were preserved or documented. "Faces of the Civil War" takes those personal mementos and visiting cards as a hook to pull the reader into many previously untold stories. This winning combination of powerful images, extensive archival research, and accessible journalistic writing provides a welcome addition to anyone's Civil War book collection. It also can grab and hold student's interest in this endlessly fascinating era of U.S. history.

Faces of the Civil War,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Faces of the Civil War: An Album of Union Soldiers and Their Stories (Hardcover)
I bought this book for my husband who loves history. As a veteran I knew he would find it interesting. I was right... he loved it. I purchased it along with Ron Coddington's other book Faces of the Confederacy because I thought my husband would want to read about both sides. They are a great pairing and I can't wait to buy more of Ron's books for my husband.
