Civil War living history - Upon arrival of the tour we were told that it was brand new by our guide Rob. He was very informative, personable, and professional. The days prior we had spent learning about the earliest settlement and the Revolutionary War. It seemed fitting to learn about the Civil War next. You may or may not see any ghost, but you will have a better understanding of the Civil War and the people affected by it. It was fascinating and humbling at the same time learning about the town's historical connection. We would definitely recommend this tour!
