Civil War Artist

(3) K-3 Sketch artists such as the fictitious one depicted here dodged bullets to document the Civil War in illustrations that would be published in newspapers and magazines some weeks later. Morrison describes each step in the engraving and printing process in great detail, focusing less on the chaos of the battlefield. This unusual piece of social history is enlivened by richly colored, textured oil paintings. Glos.
