This review is from: Photographic History of The Civil War: Vicksburg to Appomattox (Civil War Times Illustrated) (v. 2) (Hardcover)

This two-volume work is the monumental collection of pictures of the american civil war. In total approx. 1800 pages shows us the soldiers from privates to generals and pictures from the battlefield, taken just a few hours after bitter fighting took place. The pictures also covers the citys and houses as well as other important place like rivers, harbours or mountains. The pictural record is accompaigned by text, written by important scholars. Originally six parts, the editors made two volumes of this work, which is highly recommended for any civil war buff, who wishes to see, what he's reading about.
