Shiloh, Civil War Site








Big cannon, used in the civil war, now located at Shiloh National Park in Shiloh, Tennessee..












Two smaller cannons located at Shiloh National Park..











Tribute to the brave soldiers that died that day:

"Brave of the brave the twice five thousand men,

Who all that day stood in the battle's shock,

Fame holds them dear and with immortal pen,

Inscribes their names on the enduring rock."











This poem is a part of history, I remember reading it several year ago, it is a touching story about a 10 year old soldier (Drummer Boy) that died in battle at Shiloh.

This is a replica of the original Shiloh United Methodist Church. The Original Shiloh Church, from which the battle got it's name, meaning "House of Peace" was made of logs and was destroyed in the battle.

The bible remains open on the bible stand.
