A man in a tall top hat stands among Union soldiers outside a canvas tent, a setting that shows how closely the Civil War put civilians and army life side by side. The gallery files the picture under Abraham Lincoln, and the top hat fits his well-known preference for tall silk hats, but the record does not name the man, so the attribution is worth verifying. During the war, Lincoln visited army camps and battlefields several times, including Antietam in 1862 and City Point, Virginia, in 1865. Photographs like this one capture the informal contact between the president, officers and enlisted men.
