Hardback. Condition: Fair. Largely forgotten now, Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper was the first illustrated weekly news magazine in the country. During the second half of the 19th Century, it was part of one of the largest publishing houses in the United States. And with the outbreak of the Civil War, it was the first to send reporters and artists on campaign with the Northern armies. Witness to the Civil War presents nearly 500 original illustrations and captions from Frank Leslie's newspaper, many for the first time in more than a century. The illustrations have been digitally restored, and the accompanying text was written and edited by reporters who were on the front lines. Also included is contemporary commentary by a leading curator from the Smithsonian Institution. This collection of first-hand accounts from the battlefield is an invaluable addition to our understanding of the war that nearly tore the nation apart. Frank Leslie was born Henry Carter in England in 1821. In 1854, now living in New York, he founded Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper. It was the first illustrated newspaper in America, predating Harper's Weekly. Seller Inventory # 00107873572
