Overview
Following the award-winning The Appalachian Trail and New York Times bestseller America's Great Hiking Trails, Civil War Battlefields is the official book to walk in the footsteps of history across some of America's most hallowed grounds and trails, and is published in conjunction with the Civil War Trust. While a literal library of Civil War battlefield guides and atlases exist, this is the first book to celebrate the history and scenic beauty of these hallowed grounds in a large-format, beautifully produced volume.
Explore more than 30 Civil War battlefields--including the first five national battlefield parks preserved by veterans in the 1890s. With maps, rarely seen archival photos, and stunning contemporary photography, this photo- and information-packed book is an inspirational bucket list for Civil War and history buffs as well as those who wish to walk in the literal footsteps of history. With text detailing the historical context and then how to experience it all first-hand, and in partnership with America's foremost Civil War preservation group, no book brings the Civil War experience together so thoroughly and handsomely.
