Quote:
Civil War Today is the brainchild of Tina Prause, the head of product development at A&E Television Networks. She’s the daughter of Revolutionary War re-enactors, she told me. She grew up loading black-powder rifles at restaged battles in Connecticut. Critics and users alike have praised the Civil War Today app, and Apple has knighted it an App of the Week. With the help of Bottle Rocket, the superstar Dallas-based developer that has created apps for PBS and NPR, Prause and A&E have managed with little fanfare to make from scratch a new approach to history, museology and pedagogy.
