Anyone interested in traveling to CW sites should have this book. Great illustrations and descriptions of major sites without being bogged down with too many details about the battles that you can read elsewhere. Each state has their own section, so you can easily flip to whatever state is going to be your destination. As a bonus, there is a photo of Chalmette Battlefield, which was part of the Battle of New Orleans (War of 1812.) I would have never thought of going there without this book, but I made a side trip there while in New Orleans. The Battlefield site is significant because the antebellum home of a relative of PGT Beauregard sits near the grounds. The author also has a great book on American Revolution sites. It's similar in nature to this one.
