Welcome to the UNC Press Virtual Exhibit for the Society of Civil War Historians.
Since we can’t be together at the conference, we’re bringing our book exhibit to you.
From virtually anywhere, you can browse our list of new and recent titles, chat with our editor Mark Simpson-Vos, learn about our new books in our Civil War America Series, and more.
New in Paperback!
