Civil War Weather in Virginia

This work fills a tremendous gap in our available knowledge in a fundamental area of Civil War studies, that of basic quotidian information on the weather in the theater of operations in the vicinity of Washington, D.C., and Richmond, Virginia. Krick adds to the daily records kept by amateur meteorologists in these two locations. Anecdotal descriptions of weather found in contemporary soldiers' dairies and correspondence combines these scattered records into a chronology of weather information that also includes daybreak and sunset times for each day. The information in Civil War Weather in Virginiais indispensable for students of the Civil War in the vital northern Virginia/Maryland theater of operations.Krick, Robert K. is the author of 'Civil War Weather in Virginia ', published 2007 under ISBN 9780817315771 and ISBN 0817315772.
