Colour print circa 1888 depicting the Siege of Vicksburg during the US Civil War. The siege, from May 25 - July 4 1863, occurred after Union Major General Ulysses S Grant and his Army of the Tennessee crossed the Mississippi River and drove Confederate forces under Lieutenant General John C Pemberton into the defensive lines surrounding the fortress city of Vicksburg. Two initial Union assaults were repulsed and Grant then besieged the garrison for more than 40 days before it finally surrendered. The Confederate surrender, when combined with General Robert E Lee's defeat at Gettysburg the previous day, is sometimes seen as the turning point of the war. Print by L Prang & Co.

Print circa 1870 showing the surrender of General Lord Cornwallis to General George Washington and French forces following the siege of Yorktown in Virginia on October 19 1781.

It proved to be the last major land battle of the American Revolutionary War and prompted the British government to eventually negotiate an end to the conflict. The print shows Major General O'Hara, substituting for Cornwallis, offering his sword to Rochambeau who is standing next to Washington.

Vintage portrait photo circa 1860s of General Braxton Bragg (1817 - 1876) - a leading Confederate States of America army officer in the American Civil War. Bragg served with the US Army in the Seminole Wars (against Indians in Florida) and fought in the Mexican-American War (1846 - 1848) before fighting for the Confederate army during the civil war of 1861 - 1865. He was a corps commander at the Battle of Shiloh in 1862 and subsequently became commander of the Army of Mississippi (later renamed Army of Tennessee). Bragg led his troops to victory at the Battle of Chickamauga (September 1863) but was then defeated in the Battles for Chattanooga (October and November 1863) and routed by Union General Ulysses S. Grant at Missionary Ridge on November 25 1863. Bragg resigned but subsequently became military adviser to Confederate President Jefferson Davis. The Fort Bragg US Army installation in North Carolina, home of Airborne and Special Forces, is named after him. Photographer unknown.

Lithograph colour print circa 1888 depicting the Battle of Antietam during the American Civil War. The battle, also known as the Battle of Sharpsburg, took place on September 17 1862 near Sharpsburg, Maryland. It was the first major engagement of the American Civil War to take place on Northern soil and the bloodiest single-day battle in American history with around 23,000 casualties. Union troops (the Army of the Potomac) were under the command of Major General George Brinton McClellan and the Confederate forces were led by General Robert Edward Lee (Army of Northern Virginia). The battle was tactically inconclusive but is often described as a strategic Union victory because it ended Lee's invasion of the North. Print by Kurz & Allison.

American Civil War photograph taken at Westover Landing, Virginia, in August 1862 of Union cavalry officers. Pictured from left to right: Lieutenant W H Brown, 5th US Cavalry; Lieutenant H H King, 3rd Pennsylvania Cavalry; Colonel William Woods Averell, 3rd Pennsylvania Cavalry; Lieutenant Phillip Pollard, 3rd Pennsylvania Cavalry. The picture was taken during the Peninsula Campaign - a major Union operation launched in south-eastern Virginia in March 1862 and the first large scale offensive in the Eastern Theater of war. It aimed to capture the Confederate capital of Richmond by circumventing the Confederate Army in Northern Virginia but ended in a defeat for the Union. The photo by Alexander Gardner (1821 – 1882) is also notable in hindsight because of the presence of Colonel Averell (sitting). Averell (1832 - 1900), who rose to the rank of brevet Major General, became a diplomat after the war ended and subsequently became famous and wealthy by inventing American asphalt pavement.

Breckinridge was an American lawyer and politician from Kentucky who served as the 14th US Vice President (1857 - 1861) - the youngest in US history at the age of 36.

Portrait photo circa 1870s of American soldier, railroad executive, industrialist and politician Ambrose Everett Burnside (1824 - 1881). Burnside served as a Union Army General in the American Civil War, conducting successful campaigns in North Carolina and East Tennessee but suffering a disastrous defeat commanding the Army of the Potomac at the Battle of Fredericksburg (December 11 - 15 1862). He was also the Governor of Rhode Island (1866 - 1869) and US Senator for Rhode Island (1875 - 1881). Burnside has another, unusual, claim to fame - his distinctive facial hair gave rise to the term "sideburns". Burnside sported strips of hair in front of his ears which joined his moustache at either side but his chin remained clean shaven - the term "burnsides", derived from his surname, was coined to describe this and over time the syllables were reversed and the term became "sideburns".

Portrait photo circa 1860s of American soldier William Tecumseh Sherman (1820 - 1891). Sherman served as a General in the Union Army during the American Civil War and is remembered for his military strategy and "scorched earth" or "total war" approach to the conflict. Regarded by many as "the first modern general", Sherman served under General Ulysses S Grant in 1862 and 1863 and subsequently became the Union commander in the western theater of the war. He captured the city of Atlanta in September 1864 and then undertook his famous "March to the sea" - sweeping across Georgia during November and December 1864 and capturing the port of Savannah. Sherman then marched up through the Carolinas before accepting the surrender of Confederate forces in the Carolinas, Georgia and Florida in April 1865. Sherman became Commanding General of the US Army in 1869 when Grant became President and was responsible for army conduct in the Indian Wars in the western USA for the next 15 years.
