Battle of Shiloh

[Mister D]

This is an enjoyable documentary about the battle. Shiloh and Antietam have been of great interest to me for various reasons.

Lookout Mountain must have a park or museum. Plus, Chickamauga is very close. The Federal army retreated to Chattanooga after that slugfest if i recall correctly.

Yes, I will hit Lookout Mountain (I was there a long time ago). On my way back to VA I will stop there again and check out other sites.

Actually that's in the tourist attraction call Rock City not the National Park battle grounds of Chickamauga and Lookout Mountain.

No, it's the top of Lookout Mountain. There are battle fields to visit too.

Yes it's at the top of Lookout Mountain, which is where Rock City is. And yes there were undoubtedly skirmishes there, but Rock City is privately owned and not part of the National Park battle grounds. If you want to "see the 7 states" you'll have to buy a ticket to enter the Rock City tourist attraction.
