![]() Subject: RE: Sharpshooter Book |
Gunrunner, You might start with William Frassanito's book 'Gettysburg, A Journey In Time', see pages 187 thru 195. Mr Frassanito deals with the sharpshooter photos as well as many other questions about Devils Den. This book is the best, bar none. It will open up the history of this field of battle as no other. When you've digested this one, go on to his follow up book 'Early Photography At Gettysburg', but read 'A Journey In Time' first.
Gunrunner, I had a pamphlet, that I picked up at Gettysburg, that has a photograph of a man from the 1st Texas that looks remarkably like the photograph of the dead soldier...and there is a name to the photograph in the book. Has anyone else heard of this? I don't know if I have that pamphlet, anymore, but I shall look for it tonight. |
