Wherever a site involved American troops losing, I recommend that no property be retained for historical reasons beyond that needed for a sign on a pole.

"Historians refer to it as one of the most important battles of the Civil War," Campi said. "It's often referred to as Lee's greatest military victory." It is a very important battle and I think the battlefield should be preserved.

For those of you not familiar with the peculiar French system of measurement, 57 hectares is equal to about 141 acres.

I visited Chancellorsville and Fredericksburg in '90 and again in '94.
Chancellorsville is a fantastic battlefield and I most enjoyed driving the route of Jackson's flank march. As I drove on those dirt roads, I tried to imagine long columns of Confederate troops hurrying along and Jackson riding among them on Little Sorrell.
But I'm confused as to where this parcel of acreage is located. Can anyone give me a little help here?
