THE NEW YORK HERALD, December 23, 1862.
* Battle of Fredericksburg - Confederate victory
* General Ambrose Burnside vs. Robert E. Lee
This Genuine newspaper has a Wealth of Civil War reporting from during Abraham Lincoln's administration. The back page has a very lengthy, detailed account of the Battle of Fredericksburg with the headings: "Interesting From The South" "The Fredericksburg Disaster" "Graphic Accounts of the Battle from Richmond Papers" "Death of Generals Cobb and Gregg" and more. (see)
Complete in eight 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 little irregular along the spine, generally nice.
