"Handy Levin Corbin: A Glimpse into the Lives of Extraordinary Men" In this captivating collection of photographs, we are transported back in time to witness the remarkable stories and experiences and his contemporaries. Confederate General Jubal Early's head-and-shoulders portrait from c1860-1870 showcases a man who played a significant role in shaping history. The photograph, taken later by an unknown creator at Bradys Studio in Washington, D. C. , captures the essence of a formidable leader. Moving forward to between 1890 and 1902, we encounter Adoniram J. Holmes of Iowa. Though little is known about him or his accomplishments, this enigmatic figure invites us to ponder the mysteries that lie within every individual. Alexander Gardner's Photographic Gallery takes us back even further, ca. 1863, offering glimpses into moments frozen in time during one of America's most tumultuous periods. We catch sight of General Nathan Bedford Forrest between 1880 and 1920—a man whose legacy continues to inspire debate and fascination. But it is not just these prominent figures that captivate our attention; it is also the ordinary men who surround them. Kit Carson's band at Camp McKibbin in Maryland transports us to a moment where camaraderie flourishes amidst adversity. The yearning for connection echoes through other photographs as well—Shall Old Acquaintance be Forgotten? Just a friendly____? Capt Columbus & friends—all captured with an unknown creator's lens in 1893—remind us that friendship transcends time and place. Yet war leaves its indelible mark on these images too: After the battle at Marshall Hall—an unidentified location—offers haunting evidence of lives forever changed by conflict. Dress parade - Camp McKibbin reveals soldiers proudly displaying their unity while Co. B. , 3rd Batl stands as testament to the sacrifices made by these brave men.
