This is a must have collection for any civil war history buff!

Each book is presented in PDF format. They were created by scanning the pages in each volume and then running it through OCR (optical character recognition) software to produce searchable PDF volumes. Please note that OCR, while 99+% accurate, is not 100% perfect and there are some small typos due to this process but we feel that the value gained by having electronically searchable books outweighs the small imperfections due to OCR.
