- Boston: L. Prang & Co., 1862
16mo, original cloth with gilt title on top cover, illustrated with 30 lithographic portraits, 148, [4] pp. Some wear at extremities, top hinge somewhat weak, but still holding, one plate is loose, normal aging, some notes on endpapers; otherwise very good. Despite the fact that the title indicates volume one, this was the only edition published. While most of the text relates to biographies of illustrated officers, including a young Major General George B. McCellan, there are two pages dedicated to presenting Union and Rebel victories in the early part of the war.
