President Abraham Lincoln appointed 133 Major Generals to lead the
union army. Their photographs and biographical sketches are
provided in this candid view of the union war effort and its high
command. These senior union commanders came from varied civilian
and military backgrounds. One thing in common was their
inexperience in leading large armies in the field. As the war
progressed so did their effectiveness in leading thousands of union
troops in massive battles with confederate forces. Some of the
generals rose to post-war military and political prominence others
faded into obscurity. Featured here are rare cartes de visite
(CDV), as well as other rare period images.
