With a topic on every page, Civil War Visual Encyclopedia tells the story of the war using simple explanations and stunning photographs.

Inside the pages of this children's civil war book, you'll discover:

- Full-page profiles about key figures and battles

Lee, battles such as Gettysburg, and gain insight into reasons for the war and the viewpoints of the opposing sides. This book also provides children with a fascinating history of how railways, the telegraph were used to fight the war and literature and music that this conflict produced.
