THE NEW YORK HERALD, New York, June 7, 1862
* Battle of Seven Pines or Fair Oaks
* Memphis, Tennessee
* Fort Wright (Pillow) map
This Genuine newspaper has a Wealth of Civil War reporting from during Abraham Lincoln's administration.
The front page has a nice map titled:
* THE REOPENING OF THE MISSISSIPPI
Among the one column headlines on the Civil War are: "News From The Peninsula", "Terrible Losses of the Rebels in the Battle of Fair Oaks", "Ten Thousand Killed, Wounded and Missing", "The Rebel General Johnston Mortally Wounded"
* Important From The West", "Fort Wright Evacuated by the Rebels" and more.
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. Good condition.
