i went to vicksburg last summer and besides it being insanely hot and being kicked out of the park it was pretty interesting. ive been to most of the major battles out east but this was one of the only spots out west i have gone to.

Yeah, I know that there is a CW battlefield here in NO. But it gets no attention. We pay much more attention to the War of 1812, in fact (Battle of New Orleans, Andrew Jackson, etc.). You never hear anything about the Union capture of New Orleans. Like, never.
