DAILY RICHMOND EXAMINER, Richmond, Virginia, August 24, 1863  * Newspaper from the capital of the Confederate states * Robert E. Lee reports A Confederate newspaper from its capital city of Richmond. Obviously the Civil War reporting has a bias towards the Confederate cause. Among the front page items are: "From General Lee's Army --Yankee Movement In The Valley" "The Richmond Post Office" "North Carolina and The War--The Voice of Her Soldiers", items datelined: "Camp Near Raccoon Ford, Culpepper Country, Virginia" and "Camp Near Fredericksburg, Va." among other items. There is more war-related reporting on the back page including: "Latest News From The North" "From the Army In Virginia" "Military Strength of the Confederate States" which includes a charge of soldiers by age (see);  "The Latest from Charleston--Operations Before Charlestons--Furious Attack on Fort Sumter--The Walls Give Way Under the Terrific Fire--Threat to Shell Charleston..."  "Still Later From the North" and other items. Included on the bkpg. is an editorial beginning: "The enemy have demanded the surrender of Sumter and Wagner, which they cannot take, with a menace of throwing shells among women and children who remain in the city of Charleston..." and more (see for portions). This is a single sheet newspaper as was typical of Confederate newspapers from later in the war, as most of the paper mills were in the North. The issue has several folds and is wrinkled near the middle portion. These items cause no loss of readability once pressed out. There is some light rubbing and soiling to the front page which detract but cause no loss. A few quite small holes near the bottom. There is red pencil numeral above the masthead likely from some institutional accession procedure by a previous owner.

THE TRI-WEEKLY TELEGRAPH, Houston, Texas, Aug. 3, 1863  Confederate newspaper from Texas are exceedingly rare and we've only had a small number in our 33 years. This is one of the earlier issues we have had. Although the condition is poor the content is terrific. The front page has a great amount of reporting on the Civil War including much on Gettysburg, with items headed: "Letter from Alexandria" "Gen. Meade To His Army" "Proclamation by the Governor to the People of the State of Texas" ", a letter signed in type by: W. T. Sherman; a note: "The President To His Country" signed: Abraham Lincoln" which is concerning the victory at the battle of Gettysburg. There are also several additional reports concerning the battle of Gettysburg, portions of which can be seen in the photos. More Civil War reporting on the bkpg. as well. This is a single sheet newspaper of folio size. There are many tears, much irregularity (with loss) at the margins, old tape mends improperly done, a small piece from near the middle, etc. The photos give a good sense as to the poor condition. But the content is terrific & much is unaffected by the condition (see). A rare opportunity not only for a Texas Confederate newspaper, but with great content and at a low price due to the condition.

ARMY NAVY JOURNAL, New York, May 20, 1864  Subtitled: "Gazette of the Regular & Volunteer Forces", this newspaper contained only military-related news, the perfect source for any battle report or military information. Even the advertisements are military related. The front page has an article headed "The Military Situation" and beginning: "The pursuit & capture of Jeff. Davis, the surrender of Taylor, and the concentration of the National Armies around Washington, are...the three principal military events worthy of consideration..." (see for portions). Within is another article: "The Capture of Davis" begins: "The capture of the great Conspirator has followed very swiftly upon the fall of the Rebellion he was so prominent in inaugurating. Six short weeks before this wretched fugitive ruled with a rod of iron..." with more (see for portions) taking two-thirds of a page & detailing how he was caught in woman's clothes (see). Sixteen pages, great condition. Terrific to have this content in this military newspaper.

THE NEW YORK HERALD, New York, NY, February 26, 1862 * Confederate States of America map * Savannah, Georgia * Nashville, Tennessee This Genuine newspaper has a Wealth of Civil War reporting from during Abraham Lincoln's administration. The front page has a very nice map titled: " THE RAILROAD ARTERIES OF THE SOUTH". Also another map on page 3 is titled: "THE SIEGE OF SAVANNAH". Among the one column headlines on the Civil War are: * News From The South * FEROCITY OF THE REBEL PRESS * JEFF. DAVIS WANTS MORE TROOPS * Beauregard At Columbus, KY. * The Siege Of Savannah * IMPORTANT FROM TENNESSEE * The News of the Evacuation of Nashville Confirmed * The City in the Possession of the Union Troops and more. (see) Complete in twelve pages. This issue is not fragile as newsprint from this era was made of cotton and linen rags, allowing them to remain very pliable and easy to handle. Minor spine wear, otherwise in nice condition. wikipedia notes: The Battle of Chickamauga, fought September 19–20, 1863,[1] marked the end of a Union offensive in southeastern Tennessee and northwestern Georgia called the Chickamauga Campaign. The battle was the most significant Union defeat in the Western Theater of the American Civil War. The battle was fought between the Union Army of the Cumberland under Maj. Gen. William Rosecrans and the Confederate Army of Tennessee under Gen. Braxton Bragg, and was named for West Chickamauga Creek, which flows into the Tennessee River about 3.5 miles (5.6 km) northeast of downtown Chattanooga. After his successful Tullahoma Campaign, Rosecrans renewed the offensive, aiming to force the Confederates out of Chattanooga. The three corps comprising Rosecrans's army set out for Chattanooga by separate routes. In early September, Rosecrans consolidated his forces scattered in Tennessee and Georgia and forced Bragg's army out of Chattanooga, heading south. The Union troops followed it and brushed with it at Davis's Cross Roads. Bragg was determined to reoccupy Chattanooga and decided to meet a part of Rosecrans's army, defeat it, and then move back into the city. On September 17 he headed north, intending to attack the isolated XXI Corps. As Bragg marched north on September 18, his cavalry and infantry fought with Union cavalry and mounted infantry, which were armed with Spencer repeating rifles. Fighting began in earnest on the morning of September 19, and Bragg's men strongly assaulted but did not break the Union line. The next day, Bragg continued his assault on the Union line, and in late morning, Rosecrans was informed incorrectly that he had a gap in his line. In moving units to shore up the supposed gap, Rosecrans created an actual gap, and Confederate Lt. Gen. James Longstreet's men promptly exploited it, driving one-third of the Union army, including Rosecrans himself, from the f ield. Maj. Gen. George H. Thomas took over command and began consolidating forces on Horseshoe Ridge and Snodgrass Hill. Although the Confederates launched determined assaults on Thomas and his men, they held until after dark. Union forces then retired to Chattanooga while the Confederates occupied the surrounding heights, besieging the city.
