One of my favorite subjects: our Civil War. During Thanksgiving week we toured Manassas, Sharpsburg (Antietam) and Gettysburg - in snow, yet. It amazes me how Lee was determined to get up north - not only for provisions - but to bring that terrible war to us Yankees. He almost succeeded that amazing man.

“One of my favorite subjects: our Civil War.”
First it was not a Civil War. Civil War is when two factions are fighting for control of the government. The South just wanted to leave the Union which was their right. They never tried to invade, conquer and subjugate the North.

The best preserved and haunted battlefield.
