EDITORS COMMENTS
This print takes us back to the heart of the American Civil War, specifically to the Battle of Cedar Creek in 1864. General Sheridan at Cedar Creek, Virginia captures a pivotal moment in history when Philip Sheridan's Union Army secured a decisive victory over Confederate forces. The battle marked the end of the Confederate threat to Washington DC via the Shenandoah Valley and played a crucial role in President Lincoln's re-election. In this image, General Sheridan stands atop a hill on horseback, his commanding presence evident as he points forward with determination. Clad in his military uniform and armed with a sabre by his side, he exudes confidence and leadership. His trusty steed stands strong beside him, symbolizing their unbreakable bond amidst chaos. The landscape surrounding them is rugged yet beautiful - rolling hills stretching into the distance against an expansive sky. It serves as a reminder that war often unfolds within nature's embrace. This historic photograph not only documents an important military event but also showcases the bravery and resilience of those who fought for their beliefs during one of America's darkest times. As we gaze upon this print from Cassells History of the United States by Edmund Ollier, we are transported back to that fateful day in 1864 when General Sheridan led his troops to victory at Cedar Creek - forever etching his name into American history.
