About this listen
Christmas during the Civil War wasn’t just about battles paused and soldiers in camp, it was about families, faith, longing, and a country in transition. In this episode of History You Didn't Know But Should, Chris and Ray explore how Americans actually experienced Christmas in the 1860s: at home, in churches, and far from loved ones. They look at how traditions were changing, how faith and sentiment shaped the holiday, and how the foundations of our modern Christmas were quietly taking form amid war, loss, and hope.
