Cabinet Card by noted Confederate Photographer George Cook who during
the War operated out of Charleston SC. Moving to Richmond VA he
published these large views of many of the famous Confederate Generals in
their Uniforms which were hard to find. This Card has his Richmond VA
backmark on it. Subject is Simon Bolivar Buckner, Grant's friend from West
Point in his Confederate uniform. Buckner surrendered Fort Donelson to
Grant and served in many of the battles of the West. This view is very hard to
find any format and distinctly shows Buckner in his Confederate dress. Great
image.

Corps command when he took over Johnston's army of the Tennessee at
Atlanta. Known for crippling attacks he was not a great strategist and
sacrificed his army at Franklin in fit of pique. Have never seen this pose
before.
