St. Petersburg: Black Troops in the Union Armies During the American Civil War

by Vincent Giroud

This book celebrates the unique collections of Yale University, chiefly of the Beinecke Library, on the occasion of the tercentenary of the city of St. Petersburg. They are unique in that we have here those accounts of early visitors to the capital of the Russian empire set down in books and manuscripts. Other material includes engravings, maps, and photographs, especially a number of candid snapshots of the last tsar and his family.
