Bentonville Battleground

Walk on the fields on which 80,000 Union and Confederate soldiers fought one of the last major battles of the Civil War. Tour the nearby Harper house, where wounded from both sides were treated in an improvised hospital. Then visit the Harper family cemetery, a Confederate grave for 360 soldiers, and the remaining Union earthworks.
