The American Civil War...

Four score and a few years into our nation's history, our ancestors plunged into the bloodiest war ever fought on American soil....

Whether you know it as the "American Civil War" OR as the "War Against Northern Aggression", brother fought and killed brother in an effort to define the shape of our nation's future, if indeed we would have a future as a unified nation.  Much has been written about the "whys", the "who's", and the "where's", and I will not attempt to put forth any theories of my own here.

I lost both my great grandfather and great granduncle within five weeks of each other's deaths during the Summer of 1864 in battle fighting for the Southern "Cause"...

There have been four defining events in American History:

1. The American Revolution;

2. The American Civil War;

3. The American Industrial Revolution; and,

4. The American Civil Rights Movement.

The below web rings are dedicated to exploring the second most important six years of American History.  These web rings, and their affiliated web sites, are dedicated to the memory of the men & women of this critical period in our American History.  That I know of, NONE of these sites are in any way remotely involved in any racism or racial supremacy -- causes that plague our nation (and the world) today...

If I've missed a web ring that falls into this reenactment and historical society category, please do NOT hesitate to e-mail me the URL -- and, if available, the web ring graphic icon -- so that I may update this page for all to enjoy the information you wish to share with the world...

Thanks ...
