Cool.
Any chance you could name the rivers? I find that more helpful to understand military history than the names of cities sometimes.
Example: If your from the Midwest and you come to a traffic jam in the middle of a bunch of farm fields you just look for the parallel county road and take that around. Out East you don't have that option because of the many...many rivers and streams that go from the Appalachians to the Atlantic.
Until I drove and lived in Richmond, VA. I didn't really comprehend how the rivers, creeks, their fords and crossings shaped the strategy of the Civil War. It is a great epiphany to be stuck in the "Sunday after Thanksgiving East Coast traffic jam" that goes from Boston to Miami at five miles per hour. You really understand what Lee and Grant were up against.
