Snow Day Bonus part 2

The Civil War was an important war because it was the first war in history to be photographed. Search for Civil War Era photographs and paste a link to one into your comment (See the first comment to see what this should look like), then answer these questions: 1. What do you see? (Name as many details as you can see) 2. (If the photo is of a person) Which side did the people pictured fight on? (If the photo is a scene) Which battle is the photo of? 3. Where was the photo taken?

1. This is a picture of men filling their canteens. I see horses, lines of men, and tents.

2. These look like Union soldiers.

3. This is at the battle of the Wilderness.
