This booklet, titled 'A True Romance of the Rebellion,' likely dates back to the late 19th century, specifically around 1886, coinciding with the post-Civil War era in the United States. The title suggests a romanticized or sentimentalized account of events related to the Civil War, a common theme in literature and popular culture of that period. These types of publications often aimed to capture the public's imagination and perpetuate certain narratives about the war.

Booklets like this were frequently produced for a mass audience, offering accessible and engaging stories that reflected the prevailing attitudes and sentiments of the time. The cover illustration, depicting a somber scene with gravestones marked 'Unknown,' hints at the themes of loss, sacrifice, and remembrance that likely permeate the narrative. Given its age and subject matter, this booklet would be of interest to collectors of Civil War memorabilia and enthusiasts of 19th-century American history.
