"In Eyewitness to the Civil War, National Geographic offers you an opportunity to experience the emotional history of this tragic era through the eyes and words of those who were there. A compelling narrative tells the complete history chronologically, starting with a prologue on secession, followed by five chapters organized by year and an epilogue on the difficult period of Reconstruction. To add to the eyewitness experience we pored over thousands of photographs, battle sketches, letters, maps, and artifacts from public and private collections around the country, carefully selecting more than 450 and placing them within the text exactly where key events unfold. Hundreds of quotes further define each critical event. Thirty "Eyewitness" boxes that feature an original letter, first-person account, or diary entry appear chronologically and provide an in-depth view of what life was like for soldiers and citizens. In addition, rare historical maps by Union cartographer Private Robert Knox Sneden are combined with period photographs and art in specially designed "Mapping the War" spreads to give the reader and eyewitness perspective on 11 major battles. Finally, we created sidebars and photo essays on significant topics such as slavery, soldier life, heavy artillery and other equipment, the cavalry, medicine, the role of music, and the assassination of Lincoln. When viewed together, these features, artfully designed and interwoven, add depth to the book, making it ideal to read from cover to cover or just to browse, experiencing a surprise on every page." - Neil Kagan, editor, excerpt from About This Book.…
