is not the intention of this website to present the
South as defined by the Civil War, but to describe ten
states that are parts of the South. The Civil War played
a huge part in the history of all the southern states
and cannot be ignored when discussing the South, but
here our objective is to show interesting things in
the South that may or may not include Civil War activity.
The states covered by this site are shown in the drop
down menu in the left column. |
