DescriptionThe David L. Hack Civil War Photography Collection. This is a Civil War photograph showing a dirt road. The light-colored road is stretching across the foreground of the photo. A man in uniform stands alone next to the road. Behind him there is a dark expanse of open field contrasting with the dirt road. Remote from this road, there is Fort Pulaski. High above the fort flies a flag in the air on a pole. This is from _Gardner's Photographic Sketchbook of the War_ (Hack Collection No. 2].
