Inexpressible grief. Unalloyed joy. Determination. Apprehension. Love. Fear.
They're the faces of The American Soldier. They span the time from the advent of photography during the Civil War through the present wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

All are compelling.

The American Soldier, A Photographic Tribute, contains 114 photographs, from the Civil War to the Iraq war.

The American Soldier salutes all American soldiers - Minute Man, pony soldier, doughboy, grunt, dog face or GI - with photographs that capture the essence of American soldiering over more than 150 years, ever since the birth of photography.
The enlarged photographs cover America at war from the Civil War, Spanish American War, Boxer Rebellion, World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam, the 1991 Gulf War, Afghanistan and Iraq.
