Additional Information
Published in 1864 by Charles Magnus of New York and Washington, this bird's-eye view presents Soldier's Rest in Alexandria, Virginia, a crowded Union facility commanded by Captain John J. Hoff. The bustling camp sits near the Orange and Alexandria Railroad depot, with a Sanitary Commission lodge for invalid soldiers visible among the tightly packed structures.
Originally established as a transit station for troops arriving and departing by rail, Soldier's Rest provided temporary shelter, meals, and basic provisions to men passing through on their way to the front. From late May through early October 1864, the facility also served as a field hospital treating casualties flowing back from the brutal campaigns in northern Virginia.
The United States Sanitary Commission operated lodges at major transit points throughout the war, staffed largely by civilian volunteers who distributed food, clothing, and medical supplies. Their presence at Soldier's Rest reflected the growing role of organized relief efforts in sustaining an army stretched across hundreds of miles of contested territory.
This reproduction recalls an era when railroad depots doubled as lifelines for weary troops and volunteer organizations filled gaps that overwhelmed government resources. Considered among the finest Civil War facility views of the period, it brings historic depth to any office, study, or library.
