Bassham Ben L.
Conrad Wise Chapman: Artist & Soldier of the Confederacy
Kent OH: Kent State University Press 1998. Hardcover. VG/VG- wrinkle on DJ at ends of spine. Rust cloth/blue DJ. xvi 328 pp. 20 color 134 bw plates. Conrad Wise Chapman 1842-1910 is unique among Civil War artists: he painted and sketched while on duty as a Confederate soldier and served in three theaters of the war. Chapman's firsthand knowledge is evident in his work. Ben Bassham has written both a critical study of Chapman's art and a biography incorporating Chapman's correspondence and Civil War memoirs. The historical importance of Chapman's paintings as a record of the Civil War cannot be overemphasized but this study also places Chapman's art for the first time in the context of Southern as well as American art.
