The Tragedy of Andersonville: Trial of Captain Henry Wirz, the Prison Keeper is a historical book written by N.P. Chipman and published in 1911. The book focuses on the trial of Captain Henry Wirz, who was the commander of the Confederate prison camp in Andersonville, Georgia during the American Civil War. The book provides a detailed account of the conditions in the prison camp, which was notorious for its overcrowding, lack of food, and poor sanitation. The author describes the suffering and death of many Union prisoners who were held in the camp, and the role of Wirz in their mistreatment. The book also examines the legal proceedings against Wirz, who was charged with war crimes and eventually executed. The Tragedy of Andersonville is a sobering and informative account of one of the darkest chapters in American history.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
