EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases General Randolph B. Marcy, a prominent figure in 19th-century America. The image, taken between 1860 and 1875 by an unknown photographer, captures the essence of this distinguished military officer. General Marcy is known for his significant contributions to American history. As the author of the renowned guidebook "Prairie Traveler" he played a crucial role in guiding thousands of Americans who sought to traverse the continent during that era. Additionally, he served as Chief of Staff to his son-in-law George B. McClellan during the Civil War and later assumed the position of Inspector General of the U. S. Army. In this portrait, General Marcy exudes authority and wisdom with his well-groomed facial hair consisting of a mustache and mutton chop sideburns – popular fashion choices at that time. His attire reflects his military profession, showcasing him in a dignified uniform befitting his rank. Preserved within the Library of Congress' Brady Handy Collection, this photograph offers us a glimpse into an important chapter in American history. It serves as a reminder not only of General Marcy's accomplishments but also highlights how individuals like him shaped our nation during times of great change and upheaval. As we observe this remarkable image captured over a century ago, let us appreciate General Randolph B. Marcy's legacy as both an influential author and dedicated military leader who left an indelible mark on America's past.
