"The American Civil War is one of the most momentous and controversial periods in American history. This site was founded with the intent of collecting copies of or links to as many primary documents from the period of the secession crisis as is reasonably possible, with the goal of shedding light on the causes of secession, hence of the war. There is one document from outside this time frame (Lincoln's Second Inaugural) and while I will consider others, I want to focus the site on primary documents from the time of the secession crisis."

The Meade Archive - Civil War
http://adams.patriot.net/~jcampi/welcome.htm
"The Meade Archive is dedicated to the life of Major General George Gordon Meade, the longest-serving commander of the Army of the Potomac and victor of the Battle of Gettysburg. Despite his prominent role in the American Civil War, Meade is one of the most overlooked military leaders of that tragic era. The archive itself is a compilation of writings, speeches, and essays -- many of them eyewitness accounts by Meade's contemporaries -- that are not readily available to most students and Civil War enthusiasts."
