"The Rebels bayoneting our wounded on the battlefield at Bull Run" — It took the editorialists and engravers at Harper's Weekly several issues to catch up with the Union defeat at Manassas. This is from the issue dated August 17, 1861. For more about the battle and the context, read Our Man in Charleston, now available on Amazon and at your local bookstores.
