"Sometimes, as the old saying goes, “a picture is worth a thousand words.” If that adage was literally the case with New York City in the Civil War, it would obviously be much longer than its 160 pages. However, in this recent addition to Arcadia Publishing’s “Images of America” series, authors Jonathan W. White and Timothy J. Orr have gathered together what may be the finest collection of images to help tell Gotham’s story and explain its role during America’s defining historical period. Those familiar with Arcadia’s “Images of America” series, understand that their volumes largely consist of various subject images with descriptive captions. That holds true as well for New York City in the Civil War."
