Visual Materials
This collection contains 54 photographs by photographer Isaac H. Bonsall chiefly depicting the landscape and Union Army operations during the American Civil War in Chattanooga, Tennessee, Murfreesboro, Tennessee, Lookout Mountain, Georgia, Corinth, Mississippi, and the surrounding regions, from approximately 1862 to 1865. The prints primarily document encampments, buildings, artillery, steamships, railroad bridges, and soldiers. The collection also includes some portraits of soldiers and Union officers, including the officers of the 1st United States Veteran Volunteer Engineers and Generals William S. Rosencrans, John H. King, George H. Thomas, and Joseph Hooker. Among the images are two images of African American Union troops. A landscape view of grazing farm animals near Arkansas City, Kansas, is the only image in the collection that does not date from the Civil War, and also the only image carrying Bonsall's imprint. There are also two additional images that were not taken by Bonsall and include copyright information for N. Brown.
