Book Description

Excerpt from The Military Souvenir: A Portrait Gallery of Our Military and Naval Heroes Of the excellence of the beautiful engravings which adorn and constitute perhaps the chief feature of this work, we need not speak. In correctness of portraiture they are unequalled, while as works of art, their delicate softness and fineness, and their elegance and superiority of finish, are plain to every eye.
