    Description

    This is the complete 16-page issue for May 4, 1861 of
    Frank Leslie’s Illustrated Weekly,
    whose extensive engravings are given over entirely to a depiction of the current events of the Civil War.
    The cover story concerns the recruitment of the New York Zouaves, along with several illustrations throughout. The centerfold is of a spectacular depiction of
    “the burning and scuttling of the U. S. ships and the destruction of the government buildings at Norfolk, Virginia.” There are also several engravings of the bombardment of Fort Sumpter and much more.
    There are several marginal tears, but this paper holds up well and is in very good condition.
