Timothy O'Sullivan's photographs from the American Civil War are a testament to his skill as a photographer and his dedication to the cause. This book aims to bring him further forward in public understanding and to honor his legacy.

Publisher: Troubador Publishing


It has been an honor of a lifetime to have traversed the hallowed battlegrounds of the American Civil War, where Timothy O Sullivan tread, and where he unveiled the photographic plates that elevate him to the status of a distinguished photographer. His images now grace the realm of civil war media, often without proper attribution: Timothy O Sullivan's name is now largely unfamiliar to the general public, save for enthusiasts and historians. I hope that this book will bridge some of this gap and propel him further into the public consciousness. If it achieves this, it will have fulfilled its purpose. The valedictory bestowed upon Alexander Gardner by Walt Whitman aptly applies to Timothy O Sullivan as well: "He saw farther than his camera." This book is dedicated to a photographer who does not deserve to be a mere whisper of sorrow in the annals of the American Civil War.
