Re: How many Civil War Battlefields have you visited?

I've missed four from your list...for whatever that's worth. But have a few not on your list--mostly far western ones (Vicksburg etc., Lawrence, Glorietta Pass, Sand Creek, Patagonia, etc.).
Quite a list though.

Re: How many Civil War Battlefields have you visited?

While this isn't a battlefield per se, more of a battle site, I've climbed Champion's Hill near Vicksburg. (If you are interested in photographs from that expedition, I'll be happy to share).

I hope to get more western theater sites out of the way on my vacation next year. Either that or do the 145th Gettysburg.

LOL! And let's not forget the unmarked fields.

I might be the only one here who has gone to Fort Stevens, but I bet more than a handful have driven over the ground disputed by Wright and Early, some of which lies under the Capital beltway. And I try not to even think of the shopping malls of Chantilly...
