DescriptionThe David L. Hack Civil War Photography Collection. A black and white photograph of a man near a small body of water. One leg is up resting on a stump and his left hand is grasped onto a tree branch used as a walking stick. His other hand is up near his face and a low cap sits on his head. The trees are bare of any leaves and planks of wood lay near the water. In the distance is a stretch of open land followed by a mass of trees. This is from _Gardner's Photographic Sketchbook of the War_ (Hack Collection No. 2].
