Please join us as we mark the anniversary of the Battle of the Wilderness, fought 160 years ago. Civil War Historical Impressions, Inc. and Friends of Wilderness Battlefield are joining forces to present this special event. This will be a fantastic weekend marked by an opportunity for the public to visit with living historians portraying famous participants in the battle to include General Grant, and many members of his command. There will be the opportunity for the young and the not so young to interact with participants who will answer your questions concerning weapons, military life, uniforms and actual combat. There will be a full field hospital and various maneuvers throughout the day. Bring the entire family and explore the way as it was in 1864. The event is free and open to the public. Donations are always welcome and appreciated.
