Sat, 19 January 2008  Today we visit the Antietam National Battlefield, in Sharpsburg, MD, as part of our occasional series on Civil War History. This is one that we used a car to get to.
We start off at the Information Center, where we enjoyed a film, a visit to the museum, and a great Ranger Talk. We share with you a bit of the talk with our ranger, John Hoptak. (2:27) We play part of Stephen Foster Melodies by The Marine band, recorded in 1934. (16:06) We begin the driving tour of the battlefield, starting with sights associated with the first battle, in the early morning. (18:38) We play The Southern Ideal March by The Marine band, recorded in 1890. Both songs are part of their bicentennial collection. (30:52) . We complete our tour of the battlefield, and visit the cemetery at Antietam. (32:58) Our Opening Theme Music is Garden Walk by Kim Evans, our walking music was from Find Me by H, and our logo design is by Kathleen Hamm at Hamm Multimedia. Our Photo Album takes you along the driving tour with us. Comments[15] |
