Welcome to Civil War Civilian Living History, formerly the Texas Civil War Home Front Living History website. The site has been redesigned and refocused to address the wider American Civil War civilian living history community. But don't worry Texans, the majority of the Texas information is still housed here, just put your cursor on "Texas" above.

This site provides information and links that will help the Civil War living history interpreter develop a general impression of the Civil War civilian and home front. Each region has its own variations, of course, but a general impression is a good place to start.

This is also the new home for my Blog, Civil War Living History; you will find the most recent posts below. I have maintained this blog on Blogger for sometime and the previous posts are still housed at http://txcwcivilian.blogspot.com/.

If you have any questions or comments, please feel free to contact me from the "About Me" page.
