Pictorial History of the Civil War in the United States of America Paperback - 2008
by Benson John Lossing
From the rear cover
Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes claimed that historian Benson J. Lossing did more than any other man to make history interesting and popular. Lossing wrote his comprehensive history of the Civil War at a time when the facts were still fresh. Originally published in 1866, Volume One covers the period from the political conventions held in the spring of 1860 to midsummer 1861 and the Battle of Bull Run. Lossing accompanies his narratives of marches, battles, and sieges with maps and plans, includes biographical sketches of the prominent actors from both sides of the conflict, and illustrates his history with hundreds of drawings and engravings, by the author and others.
