""This book will benefit any reader looking for a greater understanding of Civil War New York, the Civil War North, or the wartime United States as a whole."" -- Brian Martin, The Civil War Monitor Both the Civil War and New York City have been written about extensively, but there is always more to learn. This short photographic history shows America's largest city during the Civil War from a variety of perspectives. It is a fascinating account with many images of Civil War era New York and an informative text. ―Midwest Book Review
