EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph from 1865 showcases a significant piece of history during the American Civil War. The image captures a Union army sling cart, strategically used for removing captured artillery near Drewrys Bluff in Virginia. The ruggedness of the outdoor setting adds to the authenticity and intensity of this moment frozen in time. The soldier operating the sling cart can be seen diligently hauling away artillery pieces, showcasing the strength and determination of those who fought on behalf of the Union. This snapshot offers a glimpse into one aspect of warfare during this tumultuous period - capturing enemy weapons to weaken their forces. Set against the backdrop of mid-19th century Virginia, this print transports us back to an era when tensions were high between North and South. It serves as a reminder that even amidst conflict, ingenuity prevailed as both sides sought innovative ways to gain an advantage on the battlefield. Preserved by The Granger Collection, this historical artifact provides valuable insight into how military technology evolved during times of war. As we study these images today, we honor those who bravely fought for their beliefs while appreciating how far our society has progressed since then.
