Description: Here is a rare and fascinating piece of American history! This original 2-volume folio titled "1890 The Soldier In Our Civil War" is a must-have for any collector of Civil War memorabilia. Featuring 100s of maps and battle illustrations, this book offers a unique perspective on the war and the brave men who fought it. These books were published in New York by Stanley Bradley in 1890. These giant volumes measure approx. 17” x 12” x 1 1/2” and weigh in at a hefty almost 16 pounds. The gilt is remarkably strong, as is the "wax tops" swirl design. These books would make an awesome addition to any library, and would make a great gift, too! The pictures above show the condition of the actual books you will receive, as I don't use stock photography. These books show expected wear consistent with their 134+ years of age. They are old and they look old! Both have come away from their bindings. Volume 1 has many old tape repairs. There is no handwriting present anywhere that I can see. Basically, they look as they do in the photos… The shipping cost for this (rather heavy) listing is being determined by eBay’s “Calculated Shipping” as it is the fairest way. The price is set by the U.S. Post Office & eBay, not by me. It is based on weight, dimensions & distance. Thank you! I will very carefully ship these books to you via USPS Media Mail. I ship within one business day. I'll be sure to send you a follow-up message containing a Tracking Number! Thank you for buying!
