Description
“My greatest aim has been to advance the art of photography and to make it what I think I have, a great and truthful medium of history.” —Mathew Brady
Mathew Brady and his team of assistants risked their lives to capture up-close images of the fury of the American Civil War and its aftermath. Brady in truth got so close to the action throughout the First Battle of Bull Run that he only narrowly have shyed away from capture. Brady’s Civil War Journal chronicles the events of the war by showcasing a selection of Brady’s moving, one-of-a-kind images and describing each and every in relation to its significance.
Brady’s team not only captured thousands of portraits of the combatants, the generals, the fighting men, the unwell, the dead, and the dying, but also documented the infrastructure of the war machine itself, recording images of artillery pieces, the early railroads, and strange engineering feats.
The text by Theodore P. Savas, an expert on the Civil War, adds context to Brady’s memorable photographs, creating an unrivaled visual account of the most expensive conflict in American history as it unfolded. His unique record of the war gives brand new readers an interesting insight into the terrible maelstrom that shaped our nation.
