Pennsylvania Civil War Photos

These photos, created by Matthew B Brady, are of Civil War soldiers, living and dead, battlefields, scarred landscapes, and cities burned and bombed by invading troops of the era. They portray the horrors of war and images of life in camp. They represent photojournalism in its infancy and present us with real-life interpretations of our nation during Civil War.
