Why Substack?
Our digital encyclopedia will always remain free, but offering a subscription service with additional research, data, and early access content will help to:
- Fund the operation and expansion of our digital encyclopedia.
- Allow us to add more storage space and native video support.
- Offer high-resolution scans of Civil War era publications like these.
- Fund the creation of educational materials, original maps, and publications.
- Visit and document early Civil War sites in Virginia and West Virginia, eventually helping to preserve and interpret those sites.
What comes next?
Subscribers to our Substack will eventually have access to a private Discord server (under construction), all articles, and back catalog (free posts older than one month will go behind the paywall). We are also setting up a Patreon, which will have similar benefits. Patreon members will also get a free subscription to our Substack and join the Discord.
For the price of a cup of coffee each month, you can support our work and be a part of this exciting historical adventure. Check it out below and please consider signing up! Every little bit helps.
