Lens of War grew out of an invitation to leading historians of the
Civil War to select and reflect upon a single photograph. Each
could choose any image and interpret it in personal and scholarly
terms. The result is a remarkable set of essays by twenty-seven
scholars whose numerous volumes on the Civil War have explored
military, cultural, political, African American, women's, and
environmental history. The essays describe a wide array of
photographs and present an eclectic approach to the assignment,
organized by topic: Leaders, Soldiers, Civilians, Victims, and
Places. Readers will rediscover familiar photographs and figures
examined in unfamiliar ways, as well as discover little-known
photographs that afford intriguing perspectives. All the images are
reproduced with exquisite care. Readers fascinated by the Civil War
will want this unique book on their shelves, and lovers of
photography will value the images and the creative, evocative
reflections offered in these essays.
