The Civil War was the first thoroughly recorded by photography what was the reaction to these images?

[Edit]

Answer

My understanding is, not much. Although many photographs were taken of all aspects of the war the technology for publishing them did not exist yet. Newspapers and magazines used woodcuts and engravings to provide illustrations. So the vast majority of the photos were never seen by most people. Michael Montagne
