Reviews
"After years of navigating Civil War Battlefields by car, bus, and foot, I'm convinced there is no better way to explore than by bicycle. ... Thibodeau has done her research and her route maps are meticulously detailed... The book offers a broad battle overview, park signage, and fun facts, such as a list of presidents who have visited Antietam. Its wealth of information means you should study the book and routes before hitting the road but stick it in your bike basket or daypack as a quick reference..." ~Civil War Times
