Tiny Civil War Cottage in Virginia Circa 1865

The Colonel's Cottage in Petersburg, Virginia 1865
“Cottage of Col. Nathaniel Michler, U.S. Engineers, at Bryant house.”

There is a huge tiny house movement going on but it's not new. This small Civil War era log cottage belonged to Col. Nathaniel Michler (1827-1881). The photo printed from a glass negative is from Shorpy.
