The Civil War Battlefield Guide Quotes

“The causes were complex - and distressingly simple - and the outcome was decisive. More than any other event in our nation's history, the Civil War set the direction for America's future. During the war almost 3 million Americans fought across battlefields that had been quiet farms, dusty roads, and country crossroads. In the four years of courage and despair, these battlefields earned somber distinction as hollowed ground.”
― Frances H. Kennedy, The Civil War Battlefield Guide
