The American Civil War would leave few parts of a divided land untouched. Florida was one of the places far removed from the areas of heavy fighting. Yet Florida would know the presence of war during the years of 1861 through 1865. The conflict nearly began in one of her coastal harbors, and the state would find its role to be steadily more prominent as the war progressed. Following early actions along the coasts and in surrounding waters, Florida became the scene of a growing number of battles and skirmishes. This is the story of Florida and the experiences of her citizens during this pivotal time in American history.
