Petersburg Earthworks

August 31, 2016, Shorpy  "Part 2-1865."

Earthwork fortification and bomb-proofs in front of Petersburg, Va.."

The picture shows a very, very barren landscape.  There is nothing but dirt and small stacks of wooden planks set up as palisades, an occasional cannonball and holes in the ground.

I wouldn't want to vacation there, Southern weather regardless.

Think I'll Stay Home.  --Old Secesh
