NEW YORK HERALD, April 9, 1861
* Start of the Civil War very close
* Fort Sumter about to be attacked
* History about to be made
The front page is dominated by a very large map titled: "VIEW OF PENSACOLA HARBOR & DEFENCES" and at the top: "The Sebastopol of The Gulf Of Mexico - The Probable Rendezvous of the Northern Naval Forces." Plus there are first column heads including: "Approaching Civil War" "State of Feeling At the South" "The End Approaching at Fort Sumter" "Important Proceedings in Virginia" and more.
Twelve pages, slight bit of toning, nice condition.
