Thousands flocked to Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park in Georgia last weekend to learn more about the battle that occurred on June 27, 1864. I walked the new 24-Gun Battery trail and made several other stops. Here are a few of the highlights of my visit on Saturday. Click the photos to enlarge:
