Subscriber Reviews
Magazine is interesting, the subscription was bogus.
I found the magazine to have interesting stories and history. The part I didn't care for was the way in which my subscription was sent. I received all of my years worth of issues in about three months. They sent me several back issues which was a little annoying.
More history than you can shake a bayonet at
If you are a civil war buff this mag is for you.
Many details on many little known facts all easy to read and a pleasure for the eyes. It manages not only to avoid repeating the same stories over and over, but it brings you fresh perspectives that the avgerage history doesn't hit.
A great reference tool for the student who wants to know more than the avg text will tell him.
It's Civil War-rific!!
If you're the type of Civil War buff who's read all the dry histories there are, paged through all the CW-related novels, and seen Ken Burns's documentary so many times you've memorized every episode, then America's Civil War is the magazine subscription for you. Get more in-depth reviews of strategies used by famous generals and what did or did not work for them. Learn behind the scenes information about major characters in the conflict that don't always surface in textbooks. See articles on the equipment the men used, the roles the women played, and the propaganda of the day. If you know the difference between a Sharps repeater and a flintlock, you'll love America's Civil War magazine.
