The area where I live is surrounded by battlefields. Kennesaw Mountain, Pickett's Mill, Hell Hole at New Hope Church. It was the great last stand for the Confederacy and the Union took huge losses. They almost stopped Sherman on his March to the Sea. It was the first time they dug entrenchments, the beginning of trench warfare.
They say you can still hear the battle when it storms in New Hope: http://themoonlitroad.com/hell-hole/
