More than twenty-five African-Americans earned the Congressional Medal of Honor for heroism during the War Between the States. From the 1860s to modern times, the rates at which those acts were recognized have varied. This manuscript conducts brief biographies of the men whose heroism was deemed worthy of special recognition. The situations each man faced while earning the medals are also covered.
