Solving a Civil War Mystery

Want to help students learn more about how photographs can be manipulated to tell a story or change someone’s opinion or point of view? The Prints and Photographs Division has presented a case study based on a reference question about a photograph of Ulysses S. Grant. Students can use the clues provided to determine if the photograph is real or not. Want students to learn more? Have them look at the special presentation “Does the Camera Ever Lie” found in the Selected Civil War Photographs collection in American Memory.
