America's Civil War was a full-color history magazine published bi-monthly which covered the American Civil War. It was established in 1987[1][2] by editor Roy Morris Jr. It carried articles about the battles, campaigns, leaders, and common soldiers of the Civil War. It contained thought-provoking essays on the way the war is remembered today as well as lengthy first-hand accounts of the war. In 2006 Stephen Petranek was named the editor-in-chief of the magazine.[3]

America's Civil War, along with its sister publication Civil War Times, was published in Leesburg, Virginia, by the Weider History Group.[2][3] The company bought the magazine from Primedia[3] in 2006.[4] In 2024, the Weider History Group would cease publication of the magazine.[5]
