The American Civil War was the most widely covered conflict of the 19th century. The images would provide posterity with a comprehensive visual record of the war and its leading figures, and make a powerful impression on the populace. Something not generally known by the public is the fact that roughly 70% of the war's documentary photography was captured by the twin lenses of a stereo camera

Revolutionary Ireland: A Photographic Record (Hardback). George Morrison (author). Morrison reproduces photographs of the key people and events up to the end of the Civil War and beyond, including the background to the events themselves, as well as the transformative series of revolutionary moments-centred on the Easter Rising of 1916-that created modern Ireland. Ireland is a fine culmination to George Morrison's distinguished career as a documentarist. In this book the camera cuts through the ambiguity; the past is not a different country; it is not even past.

The photographic history of the Civil War : thousands of. .Maybe the entire US, but these civil war areas were the last holdouts. George Washington had his boyhood home right across the river from where this picture is taken

The photographic history of the Civil War : thousands of scenes photographed 1861-65. Please go there and scroll through the entire book. George Washington had his boyhood home right across the river from where this picture is taken. Yes really! Looking at buildings from what would be possible leftovers from the "Tartary nation" (like in the entire, still existing downtown Richmond) and then looking at more rural towns and architecture is strange.

George Morrison is one of Ireland’s most distinguished filmmakers and photographic restorers. Now in his nineties, he was born in Tramore, Co. Waterford, and is best known for his films Mise Éire (1959) and Saoirse? (1961). He has also made many documentaries and produced a number of important photographic books on modern Irish history, including The Irish Civil War with Tim Pat Coogan. His wife was the legendary Irish Times cookery writer Theodora FitzGibbon.

This is a textbook.

Good product & service.

High school education in the Irish Republic in the '40s was silent on what happened after the War of Independence. Tim Pat and the photos supply essential background. Terrific.

This is a wonderful overview of the tragic Irish civil war in pictures with concise but informative commentary on each picture as well as an introduction to this momentous period in Irish history in the books opening section. The book is done in a coffee table style sized book so this gives the pictures a great format to fully express themselves.

This is an important book for anyone who wants to fully understand the Irish Civil War. Most writings of this era concentrate on the Easter Rising, the Irish War of Independence and the Anglo-Irish Treaty. However, most of the literature ends there. The Irish Civil War is the most tragic event of that time. The fight between the IRA and the Free State Army was more bitter and violent than the fight between the IRA and the British forces before that. More notable Irish freedom fighters were killed by the Irish themselves than were killed by the British forces. And, some of those killings were more brutal. The short narrative gives a good overview and the photos bring everything to life. I recommend this book to anyone wishing to get a first taste of the Civil War. Most people who read this will be prompted to read a more in-depth account by other authors.

This book is divided into two sections, a short narrative and a collection of contemporary photos. The photos are what really makes the book, spanning as they do from the turn of the century to the end of the Civil War they show aspects of that desperate struggle between pro- and anti-treaty forces which one might otherwise miss. At the very least this book should supplement the collection of any historian interested in this particular chapter in Irish history.

This book really portrays the hope,courage and freedom that the Irish Free State leaders possessed.The brains and guts that it took to carry out such a mission were only shown to us by MICHAEL COLLINS & EAMON DEVALERA.This book feels as if you were up there fighting with our heroes. It really makes you wish that you were there.... in The Irish Civil War
