  I have transcribed a large number of Civil War letters written by my great grand-uncle who fought for the Union with the 14th Connecticut Volunteer Infantry. I have been looking for publishers who might be interested in them and my entire manuscript. Thank you so much for listing some of these publishers. There were several which did not go to their direct site, and The Camp Pope Bookshop site apparently is no longer, or has changed names.

  […] landscape?  The Civil War is the most written about time period in American historical study- books are being researched and published at an impressive rate.  There is room for scholarship on all levels- not just narrowly defined academic criteria.  Dr. […]

  I have self-published two academic studies of Florida in the Civil War … “Governor John Milton and The War for Southern Independence” and “Civil War Correspondence of Florida’s Governor John Milton”

  Sales are non-existent … would like a publisher (Maybe Academic … the correspondence has never been published ….

  Have you tried Pelican Press, Gretena, LA.? It loves to print works on the LOST CAUSE. I believe it has a submission form on line. Royalties are low, but it does a great job in marketing and arranging speaking tours. Their printing and book covers are 1st class. Your book on a Confederate state is what they seek.

  Hi Brett,
  I have completed the manuscript The 109th New York Volunteer Infantry Remembered. I hold the copyright on this unpublished book. I am interested in selling my rights to this manuscript . I did have 100 copies made and have given most of them to various museums and local historian museums. My phone number is 607-657-8379. If you remember I am the author of Dear Friend Amelia and the reprinting of Aunt Becky’s Army Life.

  Have written a manuscript on my great grandfather. He was a German immigrant conscripted in the 51st Illinois Volunteer Infantry.
  It tells of the experiences at Spring Hill, Franklin and Nashville, including those men he served with.
  Details include the day he was drafted, Camp Douglas, Lincoln’s reelection and life before and after the war.

  I have something different in the Civil War field. It is a collection of Civil War cartoons. I have been drawing Co. A, a single panel Civil War themed cartoon, since 2003. Co. A shows the humorous side of the Civil War soldiers, both North and South: the mis-steps, absurdities, and impossibilities of their daily lives. Co. A also, at times, touches on the Civil War reenactor (of which I am one), showing the humor in this hobby.

  Co. A is humor for humor’s sake. There is no political slant, no favoritism, no hidden agenda. Much like the cartoons of the great Bill Mauldin of World War II fame (with his two dog face soldiers Willie and Joe), Co. A sheds a little humorous light on an otherwise serious subject.

  I’ve been searching for a book publisher to collect these cartoons into a single volume.
