Civil War Paintings Of Mort Kunstler: Vol. 2: Fredericksburg To Gettysburg

Plot

This series presents more than 160 Civil War paintings inf four volumes that parallel the history of the war. The first volume covers the period from the firing on Fort Sumter in April 1861 to the battle of Antietam (Sharpsburg) in September 1862. During this time, people of the North and the South slowly began to understand that this would not be a short conflict but rather a war the likes of which the world had never known...The final volume of paintings covers the almost two-year period from the last shots fired at Gettysburg to the conclusion of the war and the beginning of national restoration. This time was punctuated with costly classes at various crossroads in Virginia, Georgia, and Tennessee. While the outcome of the war seemed inevitable, final victory proved to be a elusive as it had been since the first shots of the war.--Provided by publisher.
