We're still traveling through history. Another pleasant surprise, we found Bentonville Civil War Battlefield, and surprise, surprise March 19th - 21st is the 150th anniversary of the last full-scale action of the Civil War, and largest land battle in North Carolina. There were 60,00 Union soldiers and 22,000 Confederate soldiers in the battle. Some of the demonstations ,depicted the troops daily lives, how women followed the troops, how limbs were amputated. Although; the Confederates won this battle, they lost the war.
