America's Civil War was a full-color history magazine published bi-monthly which covered the American Civil War. It was established in 1987 by editor Roy Morris Jr. It carried articles about the battles, campaigns, leaders, and common soldiers of the Civil War. It contained thought-provoking essays on the way the war is remembered today as well as lengthy first-hand accounts of the war. In 2006 Stephen Petranek was named the editor-in-chief of the magazine.

America's Civil War, along with its sister publication Civil War Times, was published in Leesburg, Virginia, by the Weider History Group. The company bought the magazine from Primedia in 2006. In 2024, the Weider History Group would cease publication of the magazine.
