Excerpt from The Civil War: A Guide for Teachers

The Civil War as a hobby or a life work has long attracted as many divers elements of American society as were engaged in the war itself. Today, scholars and laymen, young and old, rich and poor, have armed themselves with books and maps for retrospective participation in the Civil War. Regardless of an individual's age, education, personality, or talent, there is some aspect of the Civil War that will interest him.

The teacher has a unique opportunity to stimulate young minds when he presents a unit of Civil War history to his students. In addi tion to imparting the historical facts, he can emphasize the valuable moral lessons to be learned from a study of the Civil War period. Participants in the war fought for the ideals they believed in - the rights of man and the cause of freedom. The ultimate triumph of democracy and the preservation of national unity inspire meaningful pride and patriotism. The Civil War story therefore serves as a splendid example that patriotism and belief in national principles are admirable qualities - as important today as they were one hundred years ago.
