INTERESTING FACTS
§ In 1850, Alexander Gardner and his brother James travelled to the United States to establish a cooperative community in Iowa.
§ In 1851 after seeing a Mathew Brady exhibition, Gardner began experimenting with photography on his own.
§ In 1856, Gardner was invited by Mathew Brady to work at his gallery in New York City.
§ Gardner worked at Brady’s Washington DC gallery from 1858 to 1862. In 1861, Brady sent out Gardner, O’Sullivan, Barnard, and Pywell to photograph the Civil War.
§ In 1862, Gardner was the first of Brady's photographers to document the aftermath of America's bloodiest day, the Battle of Antietam.
§ In 1863, Gardner left Brady to open his own gallery and photograph the Civil War. He became the official photographer of the army of the Potomac.
§ Gardner photographed the Battles of Antietam, Fredericksburg, Gettysburg, and Petersburg.
§ In 1863, Gardner began photographing Abraham Lincoln. He took more photographs of Lincoln than any other photographer. He also took the last photograph of Lincoln five days before he was assassinated.

Has the Photographs but missing the captions was a disappointment. I was hoping to read the captions. Without the captions it makes understanding the photos more difficult if your not a civil war expert.Product details
