Hello and thank you for your question.

I assume from the title you gave to your question that you are
particularly interested in books, etc. that feature photos of Civil
War reenactments, rather than the more common books that feature the
photos of Matthew Brady and his contemporaries.

The best of the illustrated reenactment materials are:

Hagan. Civil War Reenactment. 112 pgs, soft bound. Colorful
photographs fill this essay on CW reenacting. Kind of like a
Reenactment Picture book.

Reliving the Civil War: A Reenactor's Handbook 
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0811729125/qid=1031494834/sr=1-2/ref=sr_1_2/104-5172377-9913568?v=glance&s=books

Sylvia. Civil War: Reenactments 
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0943522110/qid=1031494834/sr=1-6/ref=sr_1_6/104-5172377-9913568?v=glance&s=books

And here are two books written for young children that you might
enjoy.
Text and photographs describe a modern reenactment of the Battle of
Gettysburg from the perspective of an eight-year-old boy:
Sinnott, Susan. Charley Waters goes to Gettysburg. Brookfield,
Conn. : Millbrook Press, c2000. 
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0761315675/qid=1031494834/sr=1-4/ref=sr_1_4/104-5172377-9913568?v=glance&s=books
and
Lewin. Red Legs A Drummer Boy of the Civil War
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/0688160247/qid=1031494419/sr=1-1/ref=sr_1_1/104-5172377-9913568?v=glance&s=books

Also, you can buy videotapes of Civil War Reenactments from

answer until I have an opportunity to reply.
