CVBT History Wire “Artillery: The King of Battle”
ECW and the Central Virginia Battlefields Trust (CVBT) have a connection that goes back many years. Each organization encourages the other in their missions of Civil War education and battlefield preservation.
To extend our relationship and continue to mutually benefit each other, the ECW blog will offer links to the “CVBT History Wire” posts it produces each month.
To kick things off, the inaugural share comes in two parts. Future posts will be individual. We hope you find them beneficial to your Civil War learning.
