When you think Civil War you think about places like Gettysburg or Vicksburg, but Quincy had its own struggles and concerns during the time of national turmoil. In our first episode of season 3 we take a deep dive into the war on the home front with a amazing book by David Costigan called A City in Wartime - Quincy Illinois and the Civil War.  For some visual context to what we talk about on the episode be sure to check out the episode's blog entry.
