A Louisiana Tiger, c. 1861

THE CIVIL WAR HOME PAGE Welcome to The Civil War Home Page, a project that should be considered a perpetual work-in progress. Our aim is to make this a useful and interesting Civil War resource. Our initial goal is to publish material originally published in Century Magazine and Harper's Monthly in the several decades following the war. These are accounts of campaigns and battles, strategies and tactics, often written by participants of both high and low rank. We will start with the battle of "Bull Run," or "First Manassas." We have an account of the battle written by G.T. Beauregard, general commanding, C.S.A. We will be adding material on a regular basis and we welcome your comments, criticisms and suggestions.
