NEW YORK HERALD, April 15, 1862
* Battle of Shiloh - Pittsburg Landing
* Battle of Island Number Ten - Tennessee
The front page is dominated by a large & very detailed Civil War map headed: "THE IMPORTANT OPERATIONS ON THE MISSISSIPPI. Appearance of Island No. 10---The Gunboats, Transports, Land Batteries, etc. at the Time of the Surrender."
Also, the last column has a nice stack of related headlines on the capture of Island No. 10, etc.
Inside has a wealth of reporting on the war including fine content on the Battle of Shiloh, with: "The Battle of Pittsburg, Tenn" "Beauregard Claims a Victory in the Second Day's Fight" "Names of Union Soldiers Killed & Wounded".
Twelve pages, a bit irregular at the spine, nice condition.
