Description
"This volume ... includes hundreds of photographs, many of them never before published. The authors provide text and commentary, organizing the photographs into chapters covering the origins of war, its conventional and guerrilla phases, the war on the rivers, medicine ... the experiences of Missourians who served out of state, and the process of reunion in the postwar years"--Fly leaf.
