Driving Tour of the Battle of Cane Hill



This weekend I was honored to be present at the dedication  of three interpretive markers exploring the Battle of Cane Hill. These markers are on the grounds of the Cane Hill College.
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
 
Pictured below is Alan Thompson, the museum registrar at Prairie Grove Battlefield State Park. He is in works with the Arkansas Historic Trails Commission to put together a driving tour of the battle that took place November 1862. In a future post I will be to attempting to embellish the hand out they provided with some pictures I took along the way to possibly put together a brochure to submit to them.
 
 



In the mean time.... enjoy these pictures I took at the event:
