officers of the Civil War. When I began to study the CW, 5 or 6 years
ago, it was my obsession to put faces to all the names (politicians,
civilians, militaries) concern[ed] with the war, because there were too
many names and [they] were difficult to remember without a picture."

Gordon Meade, the longest-serving commander of the Army of the Potomac
and victor of the Battle of Gettysburg. Despite his prominent role in
the American Civil War, Meade is one of the most overlooked military
leaders of that tragic era. The archive itself is a compilation of
writings, speeches, and essays -- many of them eyewitness accounts by
Meade's contemporaries -- that are not readily available to most
students and Civil War enthusiasts."
