    I'm working on a lot of Civil War pages while researching my great-great grandfather's life. You've presented this historic site beautifully. Well done... blessed by a squid angel.

    I was at Appomatox yesterday, and I have been there several times because it is inspiring to me everytime I visit. This place physically pinpoints the site where an important event took place in the life of America. It was here where two great men of determination and resolve --Lee and Grant -- decided to end a war which gave the USA the character and power by which it is known around the world. Thank you for this excvellent virtual tour...

    This is an incredible lens. I've been close to this historic park, but I didn't get the chance to see this. Thanks for the virtual tour! Well done.

    This lens is primo from beginning to end, but maybe the abundance of unique photos is what makes it stand out above and beyond the most. Well-done and purple star kudos!

    Thank you so much for this wonderful tour! I am writing a historical novel and needed some photos to look at of a historic law office in the south. Your photos and accompanying narrative are superb. Thank you for going to all the effort to create such an interesting tour. This was a great help to me.

    Amazing lens! 5*

    Oops. I forgot to congratulate you on your 50th lens. I think the 50th will always be special to me and know that this one will be special to you. Great work and good luck! I hope we both make Giant Status.

    I had no idea so much was there and your photos are wonderful. I sure enjoyed this tour. The War of Northern Aggression (as some of us Southerners call it) has always interested me and I would love to visit this place some day. Thank you for all this valuable information.

    You did a wonderful photo and text tour of Appomattox. It was a pleasure meeting you in the book store and I appreciate your purchase of "Send Me a Pair of Old Boots & Kiss My Little Girls - The Civil War Letters of Richard and Mary Watkins. A four year collection of letters between a husband and wife is very rare because the women's letters were used to start camp fires and for sanitary purposes . . . and never made it home. Richard saved all of Mary's letters and sent them back home . . . Mary saved them along with his . . . and in 1928 all 300 letters were donated to the Virginia Historical Society and have been waiting for their editor. They are an incredible, moving, heart warming collection.

    This beautiful recap of Appomattox NHP should help more folks discover a wonderful national park. It is a quiet, lovely place that is very much identical to how it was 140 years ago. Thanks for including me and my books in your story.

    A lot of great information and great pics. I've been to Williamsburg (which is great) but didn't make it here, will have to remember to go next time I'm out that way.

    Hey fellow Virginian! Love all your pictures. Of all the places I've visited in Virginia I have never been to Appomattox. I think I may have to take a day trip! Great Lens! 5 Stars!
