Many soldiers spent some time in prisoner of war camps during the US Civil War. Approximately 410,000 soldiers spent time in prison. Of these, 210,000 were Confederates, and 200,000 were Union soldiers. Approximately 56,000 in total died from disease in the prison camps. This was substantial and the figure is almost ten percent of all military deaths in the war.
