The spring72 viewsClean water was hard to find as the fighting was so horrible that all the streams were filled with blood. This oasis was won by one side one night then won by the other side the next morning. It was a welcome relief to all.

My tour bus53 viewsTo really get it, you must take a tour. Some have live guides while others use a preprogrammed tape or CD which the driver will add to. I took the latter and thoroughly enjoyed it. Definitely a must.

Overlooking the valley of death57 viewsAn effective place to put cannons if they had not been overshooting their marks. You would not believe how many cannons were used throughout the battlefield and are still there. At one point after constant shelling and little success, firing was halted to cool them and replace them. The South thought the North was done and launched Pickett's Charge.
