October 30, 1861

THE LOUISVILLE DAILY JOURNAL, Louisville, Kentucky, October 30, 1861 

* Louisville, Kentucky 
* Rare Civil War title

Louisville is difficult to categorize as Union or Confederate during the Civil War as there were factions within the city supporting both. To placate both sides the two leading newspapers took their stands: the "Courier" was very much pro-Confederate & the "Journal" was more pro-Union.

The front page has various news tidbits concerning the Civil War, plus much war reporting on page 2 and some on page 3 as well. The back page also has Civil War reporting plus a wealth of ads also.

A very uncommon opportunity for a Civil War newspaper from the state of Kentucky. Complete in four pages, rejoined at the spine, various wear & minor tears at the margins but no text loss.
