Welcome to the award-winning North South Trader's Civil War magazine. Since 1973 we have been dedicated to celebrating the Civil War artifact as a document of history. We have published hundreds of articles on every type of relic that exists from minie balls to gunboats. The relic is our niche and whether brought home as a war trophy by a veteran, preserved by descendents, stored in a museum, or excavated from the soil--all have a place within our pages.
We have been active in historic preservation since our first issue and we are proud of the fact that we were the first Civil War collector's magazine to publicize the fight against rampant development of the primary relic--the battlefield. Please join us as we continue to investigate Civil War history through the untold stories of its relics.
Our book division handles a wide array of collector's reference books on every relic category--bullets, shells, swords, Bowie knives, firearms, flags, canteens and gear, horse equipment, plates, buttons, uniforms, and more.
Every three years we publish the official Civil War Collector's Price Guide. In August we will release the 12th edition of this highly acclaimed work.
Each year we host two major Civil War shows. In August is the National Civil War & Antique Arms Show in Richmond, Virginia. Our first National show was held in 1974 and we now boast the best show in the field. In October we co-host the Autumn Gettysburg Civil War & Antique Militaria Show.
