. The Photographic history of the Civil War : thousands of scenes photographed 1861-65, with text by many special authorities . WHERE THE PRISONERS LONGED TO BE EXCHANGED This view* of Andersonville, though not taken at the time when the prison was most crowded, gives some idea of the conditions. Prac-tically no room was left for streets, though there was an opening for the wagons carrying rations.
