Civil War Notebook (Blog)

From the Website's About Section: "As implied within its title, Civil War Notebook is essentially a virtual notebook, archiving my research into the American Civil War.  The primary focus of this blog is original source material from both the antebellum era and the Civil War from 1861-1865."

We are sharing that information here with you!"
