Songs of the Civil War

Quite a while ago I released a blog, "Songs of the Civil War, Part 1: Northern Songs." Obviously, it would be amiss to neglect a second entry; however, I was lazy for too many months. Now, I have bigger blogging projects I want to work on, but first I'll wrap up my old series. Anyways, these are the songs of the south. Do enjoy.

The Civil War – it was the deadliest conflict in American history, claiming more than one million lives over a span of four years, and it has left a tremendous impact on not only the nation, but the entire world. Now, just as with all important events, dozens upon dozens of songs were written about the war; and here are some of the famous and consistently popular.
