This technology has also solved a couple of lingering mysteries, such as the precise location of one of Gettysburg's most famous \"death\" images and the determination that two of the seven \"Union\" dead depicted were in fact Confederates. Gettysburg in Color: Vol. 1: Brandy Station to Little Round Top and Vol. 2: The Peach Orchard to Falling Waters, will be out in July 2022 and include nearly 300 photos, paintings, drawings, and woodcuts colorized utilizing the latest in color-recognition software, together with Brennans unique digital painting techniques, incredible 3-D maps, and his own extensive research. \u003c\/blockquote\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFormat\u003c\/strong\u003e: Hardback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eLength\u003c\/strong\u003e: 256 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublication date\u003c\/strong\u003e: 15 June 2023\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher\u003c\/strong\u003e: Savas Beatie\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003eArtificial intelligence (AI) has been used to bring the largest Civil War battle to life in striking life-like colors in a remarkable two-volume study. Author Patrick Brennan, a long-time student of the Civil War, published author, and editorial advisor for The Civil War Monitor magazine, has teamed up with his technology-astute daughter Dylan Brennan to create this monumental full-color study of the important three-day battle.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eRather than guess or dabble with the colors, as so many do these days, the Brennans used an artificial intelligence-based computerized color identifier to determine the precise color of uniforms, flesh, hair, equipment, terrain, houses, and much more. The result is a monumental full-color study of the important three-day battle that brings the men, the landscape, and the action into the 21st Century.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe deep colorization of battle-related woodcuts, for example, reveals a plethora of details that have long passed unseen. The photos of the soldiers and their officers look as if they were taken yesterday.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe use of this modern technology has also solved a couple lingering mysteries. It not only helped pinpoint the precise location of one of Gettysburg's most famous \"death\" images, but determined that two of the seven \"Union\" dead depicted were in fact Confederates. As Pat Brennan explains, that may also be a \"first\" when it comes to Civil War photography: \"It was long believed this was an image of seven dead Union soldiers. In fact, only five are Union men. The other two are Confederates. I am still researching the issue, but I believe this may be the only photo we have from the entire Civil War that portrays dead from both sides.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eGettysburg in Color: Vol. 1: Brandy Station to Little Round Top, and Vol. 2: The Peach Orchard to Falling Waters, will be out in July 2022 and include nearly 1,000 color images, maps, and illustrations. The Brennans have also created a companion website, {URL}, which will feature additional content, including video interviews with historians and experts, and a blog where they will share their research and insights.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis groundbreaking study is a testament to the power of technology and the importance of preserving and celebrating our shared history. It will be a valuable resource for students, historians, and anyone interested in the Civil War and its impact on American society.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1154g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 223 x 290 x 21 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781611216585\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Patrick Brennan,Dylan Brennan","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":44729918030074,"sku":"9781611216585","price":19.02,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/products\/1699015317279_book.jpg?v=1699105940","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/gettysburg-in-color-volume-2-the-peach-orchard-to-falling-waters-9781611216585","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
