My Diary North And South (1863)

My Diary North and South is a personal account of the experiences and observations of William Howard Russell, a British journalist, during his travels in the United States during the American Civil War. The diary covers the period from March to September 1863 and is divided into two parts: the first part describes Russell's travels through the northern states, including visits to New York, Boston, and Washington D.C., while the second part covers his travels through the southern states, including Virginia, Tennessee, and Georgia.Throughout the diary, Russell provides detailed descriptions of the people, places, and events he encounters, including meetings with President Abraham Lincoln and other prominent figures, visits to military camps and hospitals, and observations on the social and economic conditions of both the North and the South. He also offers his opinions on the war and its causes, as well as his thoughts on the future of the United States.My Diary North and South is a valuable historical document that provides a firsthand account of one of the most tumultuous periods in American history. It offers insights into the attitudes and perspectives of a foreign observer, as well as a glimpse into the lives of ordinary Americans during a time of great upheaval and change.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
