This print pairs two battles fought only three weeks apart in the summer of 1861: Wilson's Creek in southwestern Missouri, on August 10, and First Bull Run near Manassas, Virginia, on July 21. Both were early Union defeats that showed how costly the war would be, and the pairing suggests the maker wanted viewers to read them as one story. The "No. 1" in the title hints that it was meant as the first in a series, a common format for illustrated war news in the 1860s.
