1863 Civil War - Lynchburg Virginia....

THE NEW YORK HERALD, October 21, 1863.  

* Lynchburg, Virginia
* Thoroughfare Gap, Virginia

This 8 page newspaper is in nice (not brittle at all) condition due to the use of cotton and rag paper during this important time in U.S. history. This issue is loaded with interesting Civil War reports from the time it happened with the following one column headlines: "BURNSIDE'S ARMY" "Our Troops Steadily Advancing on Lynchburg" "MEADE'S ARMY""A Portion of Lee's Army Detached to Oppose Burnside" "IMPORTANT MILITARY CHANGES" "Brisk Skirmishing at Thoroughfare Gap, New Baltimore and Broad Run" and much more. Interesting vintage reading. Would make a great, unique gift for anyone interested in the civil war.
