Three Views of a Union Convalescent Camp During the Civil War Near Alexandria, Virginia

Animated stereoscopic photographs.



Three views of Union soldiers and other unidentified men in a convalescent camp near Alexandria, Virginia. Possibly all taken by Andrew J. Russell as other views taken near where these were taken in the camp were also taken by him. All of them seem to be attributed to Mathew Brady by NARA however.
