Presents a visual history of the American Civil War. Visually arresting and comprehensive, this book covers the history, causes and consequences of the conflict, providing eyewitness accounts by soldiers and civilians, key profiles of military leaders and clear timelines that give an instant overview of the developments during the tumultuous war.
The story of America's bloodiest conflict is still as meaningful today as it was in 1865.

This comprehensive, visually arresting guide covers the history, causes, and consequences of the American Civil War. It provides eyewitness accounts by soldiers and civilians, key profiles of military leaders, and clear timelines that give an overview of how the events developed.

This lavish volume is illustrated throughout with photography and paintings, and includes detailed galleries showcasing weapons, equipment, and other artefacts. This expanded edition also comes with informative and photographic features on memorial sites associated with the Civil War.

Produced in association with the Smithsonian Institute, American Civil War: A Visual History is an invaluable resource for schools and libraries, as well as a perfect companion for anyone interested in military and social history.

Packed with information on key locations, the treatment of wounded soldiers, and slavery, this is a rich, detailed account of one of the most controversial conflicts of our time.

Produced in association with The Smithsonian, the world's largest museum complex and research centre dedicated to public education, national service and scholarship in the arts, sciences and history. Since the Civil War, the Institution has amassed a wealth of artefacts from uniforms and weapons to surgical sets and home-made quilts. It also holds treasures associated with Abraham Lincoln's life, as well as portraits and photographs from the era.
