The Civil War in Depth: History in 3-D/With Viewer

Summary: A great history of stereoscopic photography
Review: This book is a fantastic resource for those interested in the history of stereo photography during the Civil War. The author focuses more on the stereo aspects of the war than on the war itself which is good because unlike the war in general, there is little written about stereo photography during this time. Many of the stereo images presented are very rare and some have never been published before this printing. I would recommend this book to anyone interested in stereo photography or lesser known aspects of this time period but those looking for another general book on the civil war may not find what they are looking for in this book.

Summary: Simply Amazing
Review: This book is a real treasure and a priceless addition to any one who is interested in the civil war. The viewer is a little awkward at first but once you get used to it, the results are extremely rewarding.

Summary: Amazing!
Review: This is one of the most amazing books I have ever read. Not only does it give you the history of the photograph but also a large amount of photographs of the Civil War. View common Civil War photos in a whole new way and also some never published pictures.

Summary: The Civil War in Depth: History in 3-D
Review: Wow! I stumbled upon this book several years ago and knew immediately that it was a keeper. The information is fascinating, and the photographs are simply amazing and extremely easy to view once you learn the basics of the viewer. I have had no problems viewing these pictures, but friends and family members who have had problems viewing 3-D (Magic Eye) pictures have experienced difficulties in seeing the full effect of these photos. If you can 'see' the Magic Eye pictures then you should have no trouble with this book. I highly recommend The Civil War in Depth to anyone interested in the Civil War or our nation's history in general.
