August 02, 1862

FRANK LESLIE'S ILLUSTRATED, New York, Aug. 2, 1862  Very much like Harper's Weekly but a more scarce title. The front page shows "Rebel Barbarities..." and "President Lincoln...Reviewing the Federal Army...". Prints inside include: "The Battles Before Richmond" "Rebel Balloon Reconnoissance..." & Battle of Charles City Road" "...Battle of Savage's Station" and "Battle of Gaines' Hill".
The doublepage centerfold is a large, sweeping & dramatic print of: "The Battles Before Richmond--Battle of Malvern Hills, Near Turkey Bend, James River Va." Much text on the Civil War as well.
Sixteen pages, never bound nor trimmed so it folds out to one large sheet, with some wear at the folds.
