CDV of General Lewis Parsons
CDV of Lewis Parsons as a general. He was a rail and river transportation expert. One of his exploits was the transport of all of John Schofield’s entire army of the Ohio, with its artillery and trains in January of 1864, from Mississippi to Washington in an average time of eleven days in an era when railroading was in its infancy.
Back marked Alex Gardner, Washington D.C. A rare card.
