Learn about a Civil War that wasn't so "civil"! Period Paper is proud to present a portfolio of images that illustrate the social, political, and military complexities of the American Civil War (the War Between the States) that spanned "across five Aprils" from 1861-1865. Assemble with the southern State Legislatures as they argue for succession from the Union of the United States, in order to form the Confederate States of America (CSA). Volunteer for the ranks of the 11th New York "First Fire Zouaves" or Col. Wilson's rebel "fighting brigade" and witness firsthand the horrors and glories that took place on battlefields at Fort Donelson, Fredericksburg, Cold Harbor, and the Siege of Petersburg, that were waged in both the Eastern and Western theaters of the war. Focus on staying alive to collect your monthly wages to spend at the sutler's tent, but try to avoid a visit to the surgeon at the field hospital, (the medical bills there cost an arm and a leg!). And if you wind up experiencing the Yankee hospitality of the "Hellmira" POW camp, take some time to read the "funny papers" and appreciate the political humor behind the cartoons. Until you feel like you've earned that red badge of courage, continue exploring the fight between the "blue and the gray" by simply clicking on the link provided below the condition paragraph. Enjoy!
