A 'Must Have' book for every Civil War library,

This review is from: In the Wake of Battle: The Civil War Images of Mathew Brady (Paperback)
What an valuable tome, Surley one of the most impressive collections of Civil War images ever collected. The introductions to the twenty-one sections are very helpful for appreciating the 400+ haunting Brady photos. I especially enjoyed the Federal Navy section, with photos I had never seen before, although I've read and edited several publications about the Civil War. Included also is a very practical guide to acquiring copies of the photos. In has been ten years since the prolific George Sullivan presented his biography of Mathew Brady. It was worth the wait as we have here an award-winning work that should be in teh history section of every private and public library. Not one of the 450 pages is disappointing.

This is a great book of the U.S. Civil War! The pictures are crisp and clear. It is like stepping back in time, and seeing how the fighting men lived and died during our Nation's Civil War.
