DescriptionThis bibliography lists all printed sources, except works of fiction and certain other material, relating to Michigan's Civil War history that were known to the bibliography committee on June 7, 1961. These sources encompass the years of the Civil War itself, with some additional titles for the period of the secession crisis immediately preceding the outbreak of war in April, 1861. The listings are based upon the holdings of the institutions represented on the committee. To this basic list have been added titles found elsewhere which have come to the committee's attention or which have been found listed in other bibliographies.
