Top Ten Civil War Visitors Sites

Eric Wittenberg in his Rantings of a Civil War Historian blog listed HIS Top Ten Civil War visitors centers. Three of them are in my home state of North Carolina.

#4. Fort Fisher-- best fiber optic troop movement map he's ever seen. State Park.

#6. Bentonville-- another great fiber optic map done by Mark Moore, who also did the one in Fort Fisher. State Park.

#7. Averasboro-- Nice museum and gift shop. Most impressive-- "model for how to preserve, mark, and interpret a battlefield with private dollars."

Thanks for the recognition, Eric.
