As a Washington, DC correspondent for the London Times, the author explored both sides of the American Civil War. Beginning in 1861, he recorded not just military actions, but also the voices and stories of ordinary citizens and soldiers, the sights and sounds of war, travel by rail and steamship, dining with Lincoln, and much more.
Om författaren
Sir William Howard Russell (1820-1907) was an Irish journalist whose reports showed the harsh reality of the Crimean War and inspired Florence Nightingale. He covered the American Civil War, the Franco-Prussian War, and British conflicts in India—creating public outrage and a demand for better medical care for military troops. He was knighted in 1895.
