War have given us a visual insight into that mighty
struggle. Travel again with famous Civil War photographers
like Matthew Brady, Alexander Gardner, and Timothy
O’Sullivan to those sites where they captured
their images and see what those very same sites look
like today. With a total of 93 Civil War era photographs
and 96 present day color photographs, the author
will take you from Washington D.C to Charleston,
South Carolina, displaying famous battlefields, historic
buildings and forts. With a thoughtful bibliography,
photo credit and index, this book is a must for anyone
