Oh, Dearest Mother, Sweetest Virgin of Altagracia, our Patroness. You are our Advocate and to you we recommend our needs. You are our Teacher and like disciples we come to learn from the example of your holy life. You are our Mother, and like children, we come to offer you all of the love of our hearts. Receive, dearest Mother, our offerings and listen attentively to our supplications. Amen.

Have any of you seen this new iPad app? It's called The Civil War Today put out by the History Channel.

Here is a description: Open it up and it is a daily interactive broadsheet newspaper covering details of the war from that day, 150 years ago. Each day, there is a wealth of information including news stories, photos, letters, journal entries, battle maps, a quiz question, and more. Fantastically full of primary sources, this app will bring you an interesting, educational, and moving experience for the next four years. .

The article goes into much more detail about the app. This looks really good. Though a bit old for my girls, I'm tempted to get it for myself. I love American History!

The cost is only $7.99

Awesome! I'm really tempted, although I'm really cheap on my apps. I don't think I've paid for any of them!

Looks like it is on sale for $2.99 if this is the same app.
