People You'll Meet at Civil War Getaway

Your two-hour tour in and around historic Marietta, Georgia (in suburban Atlanta) takes you to places where history was made and introduces you to the people who made it. This is no boring recital of dates, facts and numbers. You’ll hear true stories, including:

General John Bell Hood

The Kentucky-born Texas general who had to wear a seatbelt in the saddle, and whose unauthorized savage attack culminated around a log cabin.

Colonel Dan McCook

The young lawyer from Ohio who calmly recited a poem, then led thousands of men in a desperate charge against overwhelming odds.

The Deadly Mistake

The error that put two Confederate trains on the same track… and led to the creation of a touching final resting place for thousands of men.

There’s no dry history lecture, just a lively talk among friends. You’ll ride in air conditioned comfort between attractions, stopping to get out and touch the past along the way. With Civil War Getaway,

It’s not a tour... it’s a journey through time.
