American Civil War Daily on the iPhone
American Civil War Daily answers two fundamental questions:
- What happened today during the American Civil War?
- Where did it happen? Show me a map!
A lite version version is available free, which only supports today's date and shows 5 daily cards.
Flip through daily cards showing important events leading up to and during the deadliest conflict in American history.
Each card shows the date, a succinct description and a zoomable map for the event. You can flip the card over to read the Wikipedia article describing the event.
You can sort your deck of events using two mechanisms:
- Sort by day and month for a this day in history view.
- Select a start date and then sort by day, month and year for a true chronological sequence of events from that date onwards.
The data for American Civil War Daily comes from the American Civil War Timeline Project. This is a community contributed project to collect time and place data for the war. You can come to the site to browse the timeline or even log in and contribute new data.
The Timeline Project currently indexes over 400 hundred data points with new entries being added daily. If a significant event isn't in the database yet, it soon will be.
