Visiting Civil War Sites

While many Civil War historic sites are preserved as national or state parks, the vast majority remain less heralded. Sometimes the smallest sites are easy to find and hold incredible stories. Michael Weeks, author of the Complete Civil War Road Trip Guide, showcases the nation’s premier Civil War sites as well as the hidden gems that dot the American landscape.  See history with your own eyes and how it connects us to our past. Copies of Mr. Weeks’ books will be available for purchase.
