Huge front page print of General John Wool...



Item # 695326

September 18, 1861

THE PHILADELPHIA INQUIRER, Sept. 18, 1861  The front page features a quite large print of: "Major General John E. Wool, Lately Appointed To the Command of Fortress Monroe". Included is a nice biographical sketch of him.
First column heads on the Civil War include: "THE REBELLION" "Latest News From Manassas Junction" "Very Important News from Kentucky" "The Rebels Refuse to Evacuate the State!" "The Battle at Lexington, Mo." "Lexington Surrounded by the Rebels" "More Rebel Canards" and even more.
Eight pages, tears at margins, irregular at the spine does cause some loss of text.

Item from Catalog 342 (released for May, 2024)
