From dust jacket: Throughout the Civil War, the armies of both the North and the South were portrayed by hundreds of combat artists who accompanied the troops. Charles Ellery Stedman, by contrast, was one of very few artists aboard ship. His drawings, prepared initially for the Massachusetts Commandery of the Military Order of the Loyal Legion, have remained relatively unknown for almost a century. Their appearance at this time provides a new and personal view of life in the Navy of the Civil War. Stedman served aboard a Federal blockade ship off the Carolina coast, in a monitor-class ironclad, and with a supply ship in the Gulf of Mexico. An astute and sensitive observer, Doctor Stedman recorded his experiences with both the brush of an artist and the pen of an author. His humourous caricatures are surpassed only by his keen attention to detail and the accuracy of his naval drawings. THe letters written by Stedman give a vivid picture of an almost unknown side of the Civil War, a written description which compliments his excellent sketches. A graphic commentary on contemporary events, prepared by naval historian Jim Dan Hill, supplements Stedman's drawings and letters. This book represents a significant contribution to the documentation of this critical period of American history. Civil War, American History, United States History, U. S.
