Introduction
Originally this site was intended to showcase my photographs. When going through some of the pictures I realized that people interested in these battles might care to know what the fields look like today, as an aid towards understanding how they looked at the time of the Civil War. As I started to develop this idea, I realized that the pictures required a description or a commentary to accompany them. That's when I started to include battlefield histories with my pictures. These commentaries are less than a whole book but more than what you get in the battlefield brochures.
