Good Family Trips -- Vicksburg and Shiloh
His plantation and that of his brother suffered destruction from Union troops on this campaign. Only at Vicksburg do I believe you can find a statue of both Lincoln and Jefferson Davis. The Kentucky Memorial honors its native born sons who met at Vicksburg, in a metaphorical sense. Davis called Vicksburg "the nail head that holds the South's two halves together,"
