Times of the
Civil War
The 384 Major
Battles of the American Civil War with Battlefield
Reportage by the Special Correspondents and Writers of
the New York Times and the Charleston
Mercury and Wartime Sketches by Artists at the
Sites.
 Times of
the Civil War will show you the American Civil War
as both sides saw it, through the eyes of the reporters
of the New York Times and the Charleston
Mercury. You will see how the people of North and
South felt, you will understand their fears for
themselves and their loved ones on the battlefield, you
will even hear their cries of anxiety off the field of
battle. And you will understand why bias and
partisanship in journalism is a natural thing.

"As a long time reader of
the New York Times and as an educator for an equally long time, I was doubly delighted with the Times of Civil War. It is
a wonderful book that not only unravels the Civil War in a very
orderly way but gives us an insight into the early days of
modern American journalism. I highly recommend it.".
Dr. Edward Fitzpatrick

Education (Ret.) |

"Times of Civil War
unfolds that enormously complex conflict in a way that allows
the reader to see the war through the journalist's eye on both
sides of the battlefield. It is a great and unique book that
should be around for a long time."
