Incredible opportunity for one-on-one interaction with a NPS ranger (Shannon) who was amazingly attentive and informative. Very helpful audio tour available for download. The site itself is developing almost before one's eyes with new walking tours and signage: very much a work in progress, but it's worth making some effort of imagination in this arguably most dramatic battle of the Civil War. A light-up map in the visitor center, with accompanying video, really helps you visualize the course of the action.
