Paperback. 8vo. Stiff pictorial blue and grey wrappers. xiv, 274pp. Numerous illustrations and maps. Near fine. First of this edition, superbly tight and handsome. An enlarged revised edition of "The Civil War: The Picture Chronicle," which was the second volume (only) of Newman and Otto Eisenschiml's 1956 two-volume Grosset & Dunlap "The American Iliad: The Epic Story of the Civil War as Narrated by Eyewitnesses and Contemporaries" (which in turn was a new edition of their 1947 one-volume Bobbs-Merrill Company title). Large, bold clipped signature of Newman (1912-98), founder of Chicago's noted Abraham Lincoln Book Shop, is tipped to the title page. A handy introductory volume featuring a month-by-month chronicle of the war years and a brief biographical dictionary on all the major players.
