As I&#8217;m sure you know by now, the excellent web gallery Generals of the American Civil War is offline. The site was a comprehensive online collection of photographs of very nearly every Confederate and Union General (about 1,000 individuals) &#8211; plus most of the 1,400 Federal officers who were made General by brevet.  It [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Frank Schell accompanied the Army of the Potomac on the Maryland Campaign of 1862, and was on the field for the battle on 17 September.  He was a civilian there from New York &#8211; a sketch artist for Frank Leslie&#8217;s Illustrated Newspaper.
Fortunately for those who study the battle, a number of his original battlefield sketches [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[An excellent companion to Moore&#8217;s Roster for researching North Carolina troops is the 5 Volume Histories of the Several Regiments and Battalions from North Carolina in the Great War, 1861-1865, published by the State of North Carolina in 1901. Editor Walter Clark was Adjutant of the 35th Regiment at Sharpsburg, and later Lieutenant Colonel of [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Frederick Phisterer’s New York in the War of the Rebellion (3rd Edition, 6 volumes, Albany: J. B. Lyon Company, 1909-12) is probably the single best resource on New York military units and officers in the Civil War. It is two other things also, which are exciting to the likes of me:  it&#8217;s beautifully displayed [...]]]></description>

M.A. and G.A.G. Coppens (1861, from Cowan&#8217;s Auctions)
This stunning piece is a rare image of two Louisiana Zouaves, one of whom was killed in action at Sharpsburg.

Recent and ongoing now is an excellent discussion about who did what at Sharpsburg on TalkAntietam*. Beginning with fine-grain research Dean Essig is doing for his new wargame&#8211;with other genuine experts weighing in&#8211;the group is exploring the reality of [...]]]></description>
