Civil War is coming to America...



Item # 700037

January 26, 1861

THE ILLUSTRATED LONDON NEWS, England, Jan. 26, 1861  Pages 2 and 3 contain an article headed: "United States" containing the latest news on the events leading to the Civil War. The article begins: "The largest advices from New York show no signs of recon illation between the contending States. Indeed the breach is widening daily..." with more concerning the secession of additional states from the Union.
England had a vested interest in the war, supporting the Confederacy because of its great need for cotton.  
Complete in 24 pages, very nice condition.

Item from last month's catalog - #363 released for February, 2026.
