Between
1860 and 1910, stereoscopes were very popular -
almost every parlor contained one. Many of the
photographers who chronicled the American Civil
War employed stereographic cameras to record
images of that momentous struggle. The stereo
cards that they produced contain two images - one
for each eye. When viewed with the stereoscope,
each eye sees only the appropriate image,
producing the illusion of three dimensions. The
photographs in this book were taken during the
Civil War between 1861 and 1865. They have been
digitally restored and converted to red/cyan
anaglyphs so that each eye sees only one of the
superimposed images, and the 3-D illusion is
produced, just the way the photographers
intended.
Narrative captions for each picture provide an
in-depth perspective on the background and
progress of the war, with photographs arranged
both chronologically and by subject matter:
locations, portraits, African Americans,
prisoners of war, ships, ruins, war's end
activities, etc. The book makes a perfect gift
for Civil War enthusiasts, photography buffs, and
students. |

“I
have to thank you sincerely for sending me your
book .... and congratulate you heartily on its
excellence. ... I found this book absolutely
gripping and thoroughly enjoyable.
In fact, I think it's had a deep effect on me.
It's great to see a book with not only great
handling of the pictures, but a totally clear
vision of what is being put across, and great
narrative. ...Now I feel, having read your book
from cover to cover last night .. that I
understand a little of what it really was like to
be there. It is hugely moving ... but also very
inspired for the battles we must still fight, for
the equality of men...All the very best - I
salute you !

“Richard
Loren Copley has added an exciting new dimension
to the study of the Civil War by bringing images
almost to life in his book, The Civil War A
History in 3-D. It is a wonderful addition
for the libraries of private collections, school
collections, and those of various preservation
groups. Copley provides an intriguing and
interacting photographic technique that certainly
will engage the imagination of young people as
they study the Civil War.”

“An
ideal vehicle by which to gain an
“up-close-and-personal” understanding
of the Civil War from the perspectives of the
participants. The pictures are wonderful, and go
very well with the written material . . . the
“3-D” is a very unique aspect of the
book. You get the feeling that you are right
there beside the people in the photographs. It
should be required reading for every student
studying the Civil War.”
