NEW YORK DAILY TRIBUNE, New York, March 20, 1863.

* Port Hudson, Louisiana
* Vicksburg, Mississippi

This 8 page newspaper is in nice condition due to the use of cotton and rag paper during this very historic time in U.S. history.

This issue is loaded with advertisements and Civil War reports throughout from the day it was first reported which includes the following FRONT PAGE Map:  "REBEL DEFENSES AT PORT HUDSON".

Headlines in this issue includes:  "A Desperate Engagement", "Farragut's Flap Ship Disabled", "The Fleet Withdrawn", "Averill's Cavalry Expedition", "The Crossing at Kelly's Ford", "Bombardment of Fort Pemberton on the Tallhatchie", "Rosecrans on the War Path", "Vickburg Probably in Our Possession".

Nice to read about the Civil War as it was happening.
