The Civil War

The War Between the States is one off the more popular titles for this conflict, usually favored by Southerners and Southern re-enacters over The Civil War . I just visited friends in Columbia, South Carolina recently (the heart of the Old Confederacy) and toured the Sate Confederate Museum and other historical sites. And some folks are still a mite sensitve down there about Gen. Sherman's troops burning down the town and all that. You don't say The Civil War around there...it's always The War Between The States.
