> Can others on the list suggest a site as attractive and informative as > Shiloh?? > Ed Burke, Massachusetts You won't find a more attractive battlefield, nor a more interesting one than Pea Ridge National Military Park in NW Arkansas. Stepping into the park is like stepping back into 1862. And, no monuments. To often we place the most emphasis on eastern battlefields, and too little emphasis on western battlefields. Vicksburg is a very nice military park, but the monuments are overwhelming and distracting, in my humble opinion. Glenn Jones Pea Ridge National Military Park Foundation Life Member
