- Scope & Content:
-
Genre: War Photography
View of the slender spired wooden church, with a group of soldiers posed in front: 'Too great a measure of praise cannot be bestowed upon a more noble and industrious body of men than the Fiftieth New York Volunteer Engineers. In the midst of great demands made upon their services in time of battle and siege, the officers and men found pleasure in designing, planning, and building the beautiful rustic structure presented in this view, and devoting the same to the worship of the great God of Battles ... In front is a group of several of the officers of the Regiment. On the foreground stands the architect himself [Captain McGrath].'
