Following the great success
of "California in Depth" is the latest
3-D history from Chronicle Books. Scores of profusely illustrated books
about the Civil War have been written, but none have taken advantage of
the fact that virtually all of the original images were taken as Stereoscopic
views.
"Civil War in Depth" does not overlook this
fact. It's 120 pages are filled with more than 100 rare and powerful stereoview
images of the Civil War. 12 Sections detail the war and the stereo photographers
of the era. This is the first book on the Civil War utilizing the dramatic
stereoscopic views of the 1860's by Matthew Brady and others. The text
is fascinating, the stereoviews compelling. We are extremely impressed
by the quality and content of this book. A stereoscopic print viewer is
included.
