“If we are conquered we will be driven penniless and dishonored from the land of our birth . . . As I have often said I had rather fall in this cause than to live to see my country dismantled of its glory and independence – for of its honor it cannot be deprived.”

The Civil War Gazette allows the first-hand participants - both common soldier and civilian - to tell the story of their experience of the Civil War from their perspective; through letters, diaries, newspapers articles, and other authentic first-hand accounts.
Many items posted to The Civil War Gazette often corresponds to the exact day the item was originally written during the Civil War. Think of The Civil War Gazette as the daily newspaper for all-things Civil War with accounts from those who experienced this great war as participants.
