Magazine Archives:Civil War Times

You imagine smoke drifting from a cannon muzzle. A poignant image conveys youthful sacrifice. A quickly penned letter home conveys a soldier’s battle experience. Leading scholars present powerful essays on forgotten aspects of the war. Civil War Times magazine takes you on incredible thought-provoking journeys to the battles, personalities, weapons, and strategy of the conflict that still impacts this country. It’s no wonder that a subscriber described the lavishly illustrated magazine founded in 1962 as “Civil War time travel between two covers.”
