This is a collection of websites for all aspects of the Civil War. If you have an interest in American History, the sites in this Ring will keep you busy for hours, if not days! We have personal stories as related in diaries and letters, speeches, mauscripts and more. There are several truly great sites in this ring that show what it was like to be a soldier (both sides), what it was like to be a slave before, during and after the Civil War.
