Large antique edition of The Soldier in Our Civil War, a pictorial history of the American Civil War featuring military accounts, battlefield scenes and period illustrations.

Poor, fragile condition with heavy staining and discoloration, extensive cover wear, damaged and deteriorated binding, worn corners and edges, scuffing and other age-related deterioration. Stored inside a protective plastic covering. Interior condition and completeness have not been verified. This item came from a collector’s estate. We have not authenticated it, and it is being sold exactly as acquired. Authenticity has not been verified; bidders should rely on their own inspection and the photographs provided. If you have any doubt, please attend the preview and examine all photographs closely before bidding. Estimated Auction Value: $25–$50
