Volume 1 and volume 2 of this classic civil war tome are combined n one very large book (836 pages) that has been solidly rebound. The blue cloth binding has some shelfwear and edgewear, but is still quite solid and easy to hande. There are a few stains on some of the pages, as well a a laid in map that has quite a bit of wear. The pages themselves are age toned are in surprisingly good shape. No year stated for book itself (1895 date is estimated), but opposite title page there is a copyright date of 1867 for picture. Great all inclusive old book for civil war buff, or fo those interested in some excellent old illustrations from that time period.
