Hallowed Ground Magazine, Fall 2023

Heritage Tourism

In this issue of Hallowed Ground magazine, readers explore tangible links to history beyond the battlefield landscapes that serve as teaching tools in their own right. From buildings scarred by battle to witness trees that still keep watch over once-war-torn ground — and flags that bore witness to acts of immense courage — these enduring artifacts remind us that history is not confined to the past, but something we can see, touch, and interpret in the present.
