Civil War newspapers from Richmond, Virginia

Suzanne Levy up in Fairfax County, Virginia, forwarded me this link last week, and I passed it around to some folks on my email list that I thought would find it interesting:

Thought I'd post it here, too, so the blogosphere could take advantage of this really cool history resource.

It allows you to search contemporary news accounts from the Confederate capitol, unfiltered by time and revisionist historians, which is great. You can draw your own conclusions. What a concept!
