The last few days fellow writer Chris Mackowski has been chronicling the Battle of Stones River. (To access these articles hit the “Home” button and scroll down the page).
I had the chance to tour the battlefield this summer and snapped the following photos. For more information on the visiting Stones River National Battlefield follow the link: www.nps.gov/stri
Many thanks for your photos, which helped me visualize the battle. I haven’t visited this site, but had been particularly fascinated by the movements of the fighting. These pics gave me a better sense of the landscape. Appreciate your sharing!
Thanks for the kind words! Stones River National Battlefield–which does not have the whole battlefield preserved unfortunately–does a great job in what they have preserved. Definitely worth a visit especially with being fascinated with the movements of the fighting as I felt a deep appreciation of what the soldiers went through by walking the same ground. Hope you can make it out there soon! Thanks again for checking out the photos!
