Proposed 2012-2013 Operating BudgetThe Civil War
Commemorating 150 Years
The Civil War was the greatest transforming event in American culture.
Its memories continue to haunt and inspire people, and it is impossible to imagine what the United States would look like today had it never happened.
With some 620,000 deaths, more Americans died in the conflict than in all other wars combined until Vietnam.
