Like a long-forgotten photo album, these books open up to display a forgotten world that comes to life through 3-D technology. Starting with a colorful history of stereoscopic photography, which started in the 1850's, and rapidly became the internet of it's time, with thousands of viewers, and door-to-door salesmen selling images. 45 images of this pivotal battle are reproduced here, capturing this historic day, making this an intriguing look back at history, a gift book, and a book sure to appeal to history-lovers everywhere, as never-before-seen photographs are released to the public for the first time.
