He was in the 55th Regiment of the Army of Northern Virginia, and wrote about and sketched Civil War scenes. He was captured at the Second Battle of Bull Run and was later exchanged and made a Major in rank. In 1882, he traveled West through Idaho to Washington state. By the 1890s, he was a western illustrator for Harper's, Century and other magazines, and traveled widely in the West.In 1898, Harper's magazine personnel sent him to Cuba to cover the Spanish American War."
