Welcome to Arkansas in the Civil War!

Welcome to Arkansas in the Civil War, my new blog on the Civil War history and historic sites of the Natural State!

This is a sister blog to my Civil War Florida blog (http://civilwarflorida.blogspot.com/).

I moved to Arkansas in 2004 and fell in love with the state and its history. If you've never visited, I encourage you to make the trip. It is a beautiful and progressive state with warm, friendly people and a fascinating history. Pea Ridge and Prairie Grove are among the most pristine battlefields in America and the people value their history and are making great strides at preserving it.

I'll devote space here to telling you more about the Civil War in Arkansas, so I hope you check back often!
