The Civil War Soldier: A Photographic Journey

This fascinating exploration of the life of an ordinary Civil War Soldier captures nearly every aspect of daily life on and off the battlefield. Vibrant photographs of Civil War reenactors have been hand-colored with a technique similar to one used in the 1860s to create an authentic feel. The accessible and informative text of each chapter is illuminated by first-person accounts, letters, and diary entries from actual Civil War soldiers.
