2/ #USCivilWar - #Vicksburg: vast, well-explained, has many cannons, monuments, great terrain, bluffs, the river, city, etc. The Visitor Center is excellent. Stop there before first. Tune your car radio for a free program as you drive around!

5/ #firepowerfriday #travel #tourism #history #USCivilWar - #Vicksburg, Mississippi – Give yourself at least two hours to drive around. Maybe 4-6 or more! Here is the entrance gate and the first major monument you’ll encounter. Note the terrain and #artillery.

11/ #ACW #CivilWar #USCivilWar - These smaller monuments are magnificent and often honor specific actions, men or units. More cannons. Originals? Replicas? I don't know if all are original, but the ones I looked at were.

12/ #ACW #CivilWar #USCivilWar - Fort Hill is literally the high point of @VicksburgNPS. These bluffs dominate the Yazoo River, which feeds into the Mississippi. Powerful heavy artillery could make life hell for any passing Union vessels.
