Cover image

Table of Contents (p. 1)

Passing in Review (p. 3)
Four books are recommended: Rough Riding Scout, The Story of John W. Mobberly Loudon’s Own Civil War Guerrilla Hero (Elden Editions) by Richard E. Crouch; The Civil War Collector’s Price Guide 11th Edition (Publisher’s Press, Inc.) by North South Trader’s Civil War; The Darkest Days of the War, The Battles of Iuka and Corinth (The University of North Carolina Press) by Peter Cozzens and The Wilderness Campaign (The University of North Carolina Press), edited by Gary Gallagher.

Photographers On Board CSS Alabama by Andrew Bowcock (pp. 4-7)
Subtitled “The first time publication of a photograph taken aboard the Confederacy’s most famous raider,” the author details three albumen prints that appeared in a catalog issued by a London book dealer. Two of the images, of Capt. Raphael Semmes and 1st Lt. John McIntosh Kell on the deck of the vessel, are fairly well known. The third, reproduced on the cover of MI, is previously unknown. This image is explored in depth with several enlargements to highlight salient details.

Otto Botticher: American Military Artist-Lithographer-Soldier by Seward R. Osborne (pp. 8-16)
Subtitled, “We’ve all seen his military prints, but who was Otto Botticher?” Historian Seward Osborne went in search of the answer and presented his findings in this profile of the German-born artist. He served as an officer in the 68th New York Infantry during the Civil War and was captured by Confederates near Manassas on March 29, 1862. He eventually returned to his regiment and fought through the rest of the war, suffering a wound in the Battle of Gettysburg. Numerous examples of his military art survive, which cleverly melded photography and art into lithography. Botticher died in 1886.

 The Doctored Botticher by Mark H. Dunkelman (pp. 17-19)
Patrick Henry Jones, a Union brigadier who was once colonel of the 154th New York Infantry, is at the center of this story of a Botticher print titled “Sherman at Savannah, Ga.” An admirer of Gen.

The photograph pictures Pedro Vander Linden, Chief Surgeon of the Mexican Medical Corps. Captured at the Battle of Cerro Gordo in 1847 when his field hospital was overrun by Americans, Vander Linden, “turned, faced the soldiers with his upraised bloody hands shouting: ‘Respedad a la humanidad, o un hospital de sangre; somos cirujuanos!’ (Respect humanity of this hospital if blood!

Civil War Trust Interview

coddington-cavalrymen-350Ina Dixon of the Civil War Trust contacted me a couple weeks ago, and asked me to share my perspectives about Military Images magazine and its role in historic photography. An excerpt:

Over time, I’ve come to understand and appreciate that these rare soldier portraits humanize the terrible conflict that raged on our soil during the four bloodiest and most violent years in our nation’s history. When I see these photos, which were personal, intimate objects shared with family, friends and comrades at a time of war, I am reminded of these soldiers’ courage, and my own responsibilities as an American and a world citizen.

It is only in the last few decades, beginning with the centennial of the war in the 1960s, that these old photographic portraits have begun to move from the realm of vernacular photography to become part of the nation’s visual record. Harry Roach, who founded MI in 1979, was in the forefront of those who realized the growing importance of these photographs.

Read the full interview.

I am thrilled to have had the opportunity, and deeply grateful to Ina and the rest of the staff of CWT for the great work they do in preservation and education.

The First Issue of Military Images Magazine

mi-first-issueThose who you who have followed my posts about the MI archives know that the back issues I inherited have major gaps—entire years are completely missing. Frankly, I was surprised and disappointed at the situation. After my initial reaction settled, my history gene kicked in, and I set a goal to build a full set that includes every published issue.

Yesterday, I came much closer to achieving the goal. Thanks to a longtime subscriber who was willing to part with some of his collection, I added 40 original issues, including the coveted Volume I, Issue 1, shown here. Delighted to have them all, and am now will begin the process of scanning the covers and placing them in archival bags.

Military Images Turns 35!

mi-adThis is the title of a new ad just published in the Civil War News, and it features an early MI cover and the proposed cover for the next issue. The text reads: “We’re celebrating with a complete redesign for 2014.

Inside

Cover image
An unidentified member of Company A of the 74th New York Infantry posed for this carte de visite portrait in the Marty Schoenfeld collection. The 74th was one of five regiments that composed the famed Excelsior Brigade of the Army of the Potomac.

Inside Front Cover Image
A drummer from an unidentified regiment is the subject of this carte de visite portrait by F.L. Stuber’s Gallery of Bethlehem, Pa. It is part of the collection of Michael J. McAfee.

Table of Contents (p. 1)

Editor’s Desk (p. 2)
Editor David Neville introduces this Zouave-themed issue and thanks all the contributors who participated.

Passing in Review (p. 3)
David Neville recommends two recent books, African American Faces of the Civil War (The Johns Hopkins University Press) by Ronald S. Coddington, and Lincoln’s Senior Generals: Photographs and Biographical Sketches of the Major Generals of the Union Army (Schiffer Publishing) by Thomas Glass.

Zouaves from the Collections of Our Readers (pp. 4-23)
A total of 36 images of Zouaves are included in this gallery of images contributed by magazine readers. Included is an albumen print of a soldier standing with saber and knapsack from the Dale Snair collection, Corp. Harry D. Anthony of the 23rd Pennsylvania Infantry (Birney’s Zouaves) from the Ed Max collection, a youngster attired in a complete uniform from the Ken Turner collection, Pvt. John Tate of the 76th Pennsylvania Infantry (Keystone Zouaves) from the Ed Max collection and Kady C. Brownell, a vivandière who went off to war with her husband, Robert S. Brownell of the 1st Rhode Island Detached Militia. The Brownell image is part of the Ron Field collection.

Mystery Zouaves! by Michael J. McAfee (pp. 24-25)
The author reflects on his boyhood in southeast Ohio and an image of a group of Dayton (Ohio) Zouave Rangers engaged in a mock battle that belonged to the Campus Martius Museum in Marietta, Ohio. The image and other artifacts were stolen from the museum in the 1970s only to turn up in the Liljenquist Family Collection donated to the Library of Congress. McAfee wonders, “What do our readers think of this coincidence?”

And Numbered They Lie with the Great Union Dead by Scott Valentine (pp. 26-27)
Profiles of two officers who served in the 165th New York Infantry, also known as the Second Battalion Duryea’s Zouaves. 2nd Lt. Robert Carville and Lt. Col. Abel Smith Jr. participated in the failed assault against the Confederate defenses of Port Hudson, La., on May 27, 1863. Carville was killed outright, and Smith suffered a mortal wound. Carville became the subject of a patriotic poem penned by his brother-in-law, Valentine Mott Francis, M.D.

Uniforms & History by Michael J. McAfee (pp. 30-37)
In What Is a Zouave? (Part Two!), McAfee notes that he first wrote about Zouaves for MI back in the September-October 1979 issue. This second installment provides new information and includes four unique groupings, each composed of three cartes de visite, of Zouave images that highlight various aspects of the uniform. “Zouave Cadet Imitators” showcases soldiers in uniforms described as “knock-offs” of the gaudy Zouave style. “French Style Uniforms” features portraits of men in uniforms that closely approximate the French style. “Modified French Uniforms” show examples of common enhancements. “Zouaves of a Different Color” is a collection of lesser-known organizations.

A Few More Zouaves (p. 39)
Two cartes de visite are portraits of a member of the Sprague Zouave Cadets, which were part of the 7th Ohio Infantry (Dale Snair collection) and a post-Civil War image of a pair of Zoauve-attired officers who served in the 1st National Guard of New York (Michael J. McAfee collection).

The Last Shot (p. 40)
A Union soldier wears the uniform jacket cut in the Zouave-style. Hanging next to him on a chair is a large knife. The carte de visite portrait is from the Dale Snair collection.

Inside Back Cover
More Zouaves portraits include two cartes de visite from the Ed Max collection, an unidentified member of the 95th Pennsylvania Infantry, or Goslin’s Zouaves, and an unknown Zouave drummer. A hard plate image from the Dale Snair collection is a Zouave who may have been a member of Elmer Ellsworth’s United States Zouave Cadets. A carte de visite from the Michael J. McAfee collection is a Zouave who served in the 23rd Pennsylvania Infantry, also known as Birney’s Zoauves.

Back Cover
Pvt. Henry Lyons was wounded in the leg on July 2, 1863, at the Battle of Gettysburg. He served in the 114th Pennsylvania Infantry, also known as Collis’ Zouaves. The carte de visite is part of the Ed Max collection.
