The American Civil War Homepage

Looking for a subject to do a school history report on? Want to spend some time cruising some online museums, and finding out about one of the most important events in our nation’s history? If so, then today’s Family Site is for you.

The site is called The American Civil War Homepage, and if historical events could talk, this one would be a screamer. Here is a most complete collection of links to every aspect of the War between the States, from the beginning origins of slavery and states rights, to the shame of reconstruction, with stops along the way validating William T. Sherman’s claim that “…war is hell…”. I spent over 2 hours here the first time I visited, there is so much here to enjoy.

Collections of information such as this site really help make the Internet a truly educational tool. Expect to see more of these types of sites increase, as cyberspace grows.
