IIRC, there is a long out-of-print book of Waud sketches.

I do not recall if it's 30 or 100 years old.

IMHO, one of his best sketches is of a Virginia train station during the 2nd Manassas campaign. Nothing thrilling about it, but it's practically photographic in detail and perspective.

I've never seen a Waud drawing where the proportions among men, horses, wagons, buildings, etc is imperfect...
