The Confederate Image
Prints of the Lost Cause
by Mark E. Neely Jr., Harold
Holzer, and Gabor S. Boritt
Softcover, 288 pages, 8-1/2" x 11", 20 color illustrations,
121 b&w illustrations,
Published Fall/Winter 2000
University of North Carolina Press
From the publisher:
First published in 1987, The Confederate Image examines the popular
lithographs and engravings cherished by Southerners during and after the
Civil War. These images helped sustain and revive Southern identity
following the collapse of the Confederacy. (Though, ironically, most were
actually crafted by Northern artisans.) The book focuses on prints of the
three most prominent Southern figures of the conflict--Robert E. Lee,
Jefferson Davis, and Stonewall Jackson--but also discusses prints of other
important Confederates as well as the contributions of the short-lived
Southern Illustrated News.
"A well-researched and
interesting sidelight into a world of illusion."--New York Times Book Review
"More than just a picture
book. . . . [It] tells a fascinating story of the creation of these images
and how they added to or, at times, ran counter to the creation of the myth
that is known as the Lost Cause."--Chicago Tribune
