Default New Civil War Resource

To All,

You might want to check out the following website for some excellent source material on the Civil War:

Eastern North Carolina Digital Library

http://digital.lib.ecu.edu/historyfiction/home.aspx

The site takes old, out of print books and digitally reconstructs them so you can read the entire book online and still view the pictures and illustrations within the book.

There are many period and Civil War books there, both of a historical and fictional character, well worth you time to cruise through the subjects and titles there.

Hope you enjoy it.

Sincerely,
Unionblue
