Item # 591641

June 17, 1862

THE NEW YORK HERALD, June 17, 1862 

* Secessionville, South Carolina- James Island
* Peninsula campaign in Virginia


This Genuine newspaper has a Wealth of Civil War reporting from during Abraham Lincoln's administration.

Among the one column headlines on the Civil War within this issue: "Important From Port Royal", "Operations Against Charleston", "Sharp Battle On James Island", "Rebel Accounts Of The Affair", "Foray of Rebel Cavalry Along The Pamunkey River", "Interesting From The Peninsula", "The Rebel Guerrillas Around White House" and more. 

Complete in ten 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. A few small margin tears, otherwise in very nice condition.
