Publication Washington, D.C., National Geographic Society, 2006.
Description 416pBlack Spine
Summary/Abstract The men and women who endured the Civil War created a remarkable first-hand chronicle of America's most tumultuous era. Soldiers penned letters and journals, their uncensored words revealing emotions and actions born of unimaginable circumstances. Wives and mothers wrote back, attempting to boost the soldiers' morale while fighting their own battles to keep families fed and sheltered. Photographers lugged their cumbersome tools into war zones, compiling a visual record whose like the world had never seen. Soldiers and civilians carefully tucked away keepsakes of the momentous events they had witnessed. Eyewitness to the Civil War examines every significant battle and initiative through detailed maps, pictures, and the participants own words.
