spring hill basttlefieldSpring Hill - Civil War battlefields have now become important. Who would have thought that we would want to remember the worst days of this country. The destruction of civilion property throughout the south is still a very sore spot with southerners, and the fact that congress declared 3.5 million civilians as traitors so that they couldn't vote or hold property, didn't set very well either.

The preservation of historical battlefields thoughout Tennessee is happening, and maybe some day, southerners will not be resentful of the fact that everyone who lived in the south lost everything, no matter which side they believed in.

Larry, Right on. Many southerners were treated like second class citizens. After all the southern states were re-admitted, South Carolina stayed under martial law and federal control for 8 more years before they were re-admitted, Yes, there is still quite a bit of bitterness here in the South...

Michael - History seems to have been forgotten, and maybe it should be in this case. Unfortunately these battlefields that are coming up thought the south will be a constant reminder of how the citizens of the south were treated during and after the war

We try to negotiate with known terrorist now, but 147 years ago, it was better to just attack your neighbors, take want you want, kill the civilians, and burn everything in sight. It happened here, and it's still an unbelieveable story.
