STONE RIVER BATTLEFIELD

http://www.civilwar.org/historyclassroom/hc_stonesriverhist.htm It is a sad place. It is a place of death. It is a place where men laid down their lives willingly for all that they believed; right or wrong. It is a place of terrible suffering. It is a place that represents our countries struggles to find itself. It represents misery and pain; agony and defeat; pride and embarrassment; heroism and fear. But it is one of many battles fought that contributed to the foundation that this great country is built upon and helped sculpture our destiny.
