Abstract
Due to the evolution of photography and the rise of literacy, the Civil War was one of the first conflicts during which the day-to-day reality of the soldiers was documented. The 35 stereoscopic images in Civil War in 3D, along with the accompanying photo-filled booked that includes excerpts from soldiers' letters, diaries, and memoirs, capture, with stunning clarity, the chaos of combat; the spare and salty rations; the soaking rains; the prevalent illnesses; the crowded tents; the elusive cleanliness; the pleasure of a cup of coffee; and the callous disregard of the dead
