The purpose of this blog is to help you Learn Civil War History. You are invited to read about a crucial time in the history of the United States – the Civil War.
There is something about America’s Civil War that captures and holds our interest, it is an amazing story.
The Civil War was a defining time in the history of the United States. Many of the hallowed battlefields of the Civil War are with us today, although the survivors who fought on those battlefields are now long gone from our presence. If you have been fortunate enough to stand on Little Round Top, at the Copse of Trees, or at The Angle (where Pickett’s Charge ended) at Gettysburg or in the Bloody Lane, in Dunker Church, or on Burnside’s Bridge at Antietam, or perhaps at any of the other Civil War battlefields spread across our country, then you know great and important events happened there. If you have not yet been to the hallowed grounds of the Civil War, then go! They are waiting for you to visit and learn.
Perhaps you have a relative who fought in the Civil War, or maybe in your own town (or even in your own backyard), men fought and died in a battle or minor skirmish. Maybe there is an old uniform, rifle, diary, letters, or other artifact from the Civil War stashed away in your attic in a family treasures locker. Some families are lucky enough to have Civil War stories passed along through the generations…originating from the voices of those who lived during the Civil War. The Civil War still is, and forever will be, a part of us. Let’s learn about the Civil War!
Learn Civil War History…this blog will tell the history and story of the Civil War.
As various anniversaries of the events and happenings of the Civil War occur, the people, battles, history, topics of interest, stories, and anything or everything about this crucial time in American history will be discussed in this blog. Anything that happens to capture my attention about the Civil War will be written about in the LearnCivilWarHistory.com blog. Whether you are a current-day Johnny Reb or Billy Yank, you should find something of interest here.
Learning about the Civil War is something you can spend a lifetime pursuing. It will be a rewarding and interesting experience whether you pursue it as a hobby, or as a study of serious research. There is always something new and fascinating to learn about the War Between the States! Indeed, even today there is new information being discovered about the Civil War.
