EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Philip Cook of Georgia, a prominent figure during the years 1865-1880. The creator remains unknown, but their talent in capturing this powerful image is undeniable. Philip Cook was a man of many roles - a politician, lawyer, and soldier who served as a general in the Confederate States Army's 4th Georgia Volunteer Infantry. His journey began as a private in 1861 and eventually led him to become Brigadier General in August 1863. Notably, he played a significant role as the leader in Gordon's attack on Fort Stedman. The photograph portrays Cook with his distinguished facial hair, sporting an impressive beard that adds to his commanding presence. The intensity captured within his eyes reflects both determination and resilience. Preserved through glass negatives from the late 19th century by LC Handy at the Library of Congress, this portrait offers us insight into an important era of American history. It serves as a reminder of the sacrifices made by individuals like Philip Cook during times of political unrest and conflict. As we gaze upon this remarkable stereoscopic photograph, we are transported back to an era when men like Philip Cook shaped our nation's destiny through their unwavering dedication to their country and its people.
