DescriptionThe David L. Hack Civil War Photography Collection. This sepia toned photograph is of seven men that are seated in uniform outside their tent. Some of the men are smoking cigars another one seems to be writing something down while the men in the middle are looking at a map. There is a flag hanging outside the tent with two crossed swords. There is a fence and a tree in the background. This is from _Gardner's Photographic Sketchbook of the War_ (Hack Collection No. 2].
