Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 18 Civil War battle scene images in this book were originally published by L. Prang & Co. during the years 1886 to 1888. Louis Prang commissioned artist Thure de Thulstrup to do the 12 land battle scenes and commissioned artist Julian Oliver Davidson to do the 6 naval battle scenes. The pictures were called “chromos” after the printing methods used at the time. The chromos were all given a sepia tone to give them the look of old oil paintings.
