Images of the American Civil War is live

We are excited to announce the beta release of the highly anticipated Images of the American Civil War: Photographs, Posters, and Ephemera.  This new online collection presents the dramatic imagery of nineteenth-century Americana as experienced from the social, political, and military perspectives.

Cheryl LaGuardia, author of the E-Views blog on LibraryJournal.com, notes the collection's robust search capabilities and says, "it's an important, fascinating collection of photos and ephemera." 

At completion, Images of the American Civil War will contain 75,000 images allowing researchers and students to see the moments that occurred as the nation stood divided. 

Access to Images of the American Civil War is open through June 30th as part of our extended Civil War open access period.  For more details visit http://www.alexanderstreet.com/resources/civilwar.access.htm.
