NEW YORK WEEKLY DAY-BOOK CAUCASIAN, Aug. 19, 1865 A decidedly racist newspaper which began well before the Civil War & lasted a few years after. As such their reporting on events of the day provides a contrasting perspective beyond most other Northern newspapers.

Also: "The Andersonville Prisoners - Refutation of Abolition Falsehoods" "The Unfortunate Mrs. Surratt" "General Lee Asking Pardon" and more.
Eight pages, very nice condition.
