A Thousand Words a Battle: Conclusion

Last September, we launched our Thousand Words a Battle series. For almost a year, across 47 posts, we’ve brought you a post each week that features an incredible photograph from Chris Heisey, paired with primary sources and interpretation from one of Emerging Civil War’s member historians.

You can view all of the posts here, and they’re also listed below for reference.

This particular series may be over, but that doesn’t change that photos are one of the most powerful ways that we can communicate about the Civil War. Stay tuned for upcoming Emerging Civil War projects that will bring you more photographs from battlefields and other historic sites.
