The war would have come, sooner or later. God usually punishes wicked nations by war. I mean by this that when people become too wicked, he gives them over to a hardness of heart to work out their own punishment and sometimes destruction. This site brings printed Southern history and culture to anyone with Web access. Sponsored by the Academic Affairs Library, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, it provides digitized and encoded printed works, manuscripts and artifacts on the South from the colonial period through the first decades of the twentieth century.
Many documents are in full text with illustrations, covers, and title pages.
The purpose of Printing's Past is to preserve the motivating spirit of pride in the printing heritage, the ethic of work and craftsmanship, and the appreciation of the contributions of a free press. Correspondence is welcome and appreciated.
