Tales of the Gun : Guns of the civil war: "Guns were around for centuries before the 1860s, but the innovations of the Industrial Revolution brought them to a new level of precision and handling. The deadly result: more Americans were killed in the Civil War than in all other American wars combined." Eighty acres of Hell: "From 1862 to 1865, 26,000 Confederate soldiers passed through Camp Douglas, a rarely mentioned prisoner-of-war camp in Chicago. Inhumane conditions--filth, disease, starvation, torture, bitter cold--resulted in the deaths of 6,000 men at this "Andersonville of the North."
