The Center for Civil War Photography

Click to visit the Center for Civil War Photography. The CCWP is a non-profit organization devoted to one of the most exciting and compelling areas of Civil War scholarship and discovery. New photographic finds from our nation's greatest conflict are still made on a regular basis.
Nearly every Civil War soldier had his photograph taken by one of the more than 5,000 American photographers active at the time, and a select group of documentary photographers took thousands of images on the battlefields and in the army camps, often in 3D.
Within the site you will find basic and complex information about Civil War photography and its practioners, as well as reproductions of many war photos. It features an online bookstore with its own Civil War photography publications as well as others, along with a page of links to other online Civil War photography resources.
