Living History
An important part of every reenactment is sharing what we know about the Civil War with the spectators.
Re-enactors are people to whom the past is forever speaking. Men who were flesh of our flesh and bone of our bone went through fire and storm to break a path to the future. We are part of that future they died for.
What they did--the lives they lived, the sacrifices they made, the stories they told and the songs they sang and, finally, the deaths they died--make up a part of our own experience.
It is a basic part of our heritage as Americans.
As reenactors and living historians it is our privilege to share this information, not only about the 7th Tennessee but also that entire period of American history to the young and the old who visit our camp.
