Shades of Gray & Blue
Shades of Gray and Blue: Reflections of Life in Civil War Tennessee was designed to place images of works of art and material culture objects within easy reach of teachers and students of Tennessee history. This digital collection is the culmination of three years of research and collaboration between the MTSU James E. Walker Library, Vanderbilt University’s Jean and Alexander Heard Library, and the Center for Historic Preservation. It was funded, in part, by the Tennessee Civil War National Heritage Area. The images, many available here for the first time, are presented in the context of themes and stories on this website, with teacher-designed lesson plans for each theme. Full catalog records direct scholars to additional resource and repositories, making Shades of Gray and Bluevaluable for researchers at all levels.
