A list made by the Civil War Trust of 150 things to do to celebrate the sesquicentennial of the Civil War. If you are a Civil War buff you will like it. It tells a lot of the major and sometimes forgotten sites of the war you should check out. They also have a list of 1,400 sites on the Civil War Trust website. Good read for a Civil War buff.
