Summary

The battlefields of the Civil War are among the most evocative places in the American landscape. "Today you can stand at...Antietam, at the edge of what is still a farm field, amd visualize the waves of infantry, feel the urgency, capture for a moment the meaning of how that day changed our nation's history. The land is there as it was, and for a few minutes you are part of that terrible day, part of history.".
