Harper's Weekly was published in New York from 1857 to 1916 as an offshoot of the more popular Harper's Monthly; both publications covered a variety of topics, including politics, literature, arts, humor, and illustrations, although the Weekly was especially famed for coverage of the events of the Civil War as they unfolded. Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper was published in New York from 1855 to 1921 under a variety of titles; the German language edition, Frank Leslie's Illustrirte Zeitung, was published from 1857 to 1894, also in New York. Atlas to Accompany the Official Records of the Union and Confederate Armies, often referred to by historians as the War of the Rebellion Atlas, was created as a companion piece to the Official Records of the American Civil War, a collection of primary sources from both sides of the war, including orders, correspondence, and diagrams; maps were compiled into the Atlas.

Series I, Maps, is subdivided into Civil War era, arranged chronologically by year of publication and including several campaign maps from the definitive Atlas, and two additional maps.","Series II, Illustrations, tends to come from contemporary newspapers, and as such, the reverse sides may feature editorials and propaganda in support of the Union and ridiculing both the South and the pro-reconciliation views of the British, as well as fiction, poetry, and advertisements for patent medicines and sundry other items.","Copyright restrictions may apply.
