A leisurely Look at Michigan’s stories and traditions from yesterday to yesteryear.
The Civil War Manuscripts collection consists of letters and diaries from the Civil War period (1861-1865). The letters and diaries document Michigan soldiers’ experiences while serving the Union in various units. Most of the collection consists of personal narratives with a few official records concerning the war and later pensions.
