Georgia
This tour is not about the generals. It follows the enlisted men, the militia boys, and the specific unit monuments that mark where ordinary soldiers stood, charged, and fell. From the Andrews' Raiders who won the first Medals of Honor, to the mounted infantrymen with repeating rifles at Chickamauga, to the old men and boys cut down at Griswoldville, these are the stones raised to the rank-and-file.
Soldiers' Stories: Monuments to the Men is a self-guided driving tour of Northwest & Central Georgia, built around its civilwar side.
The walk covers 9 stops over about 205.0 miles and roughly 10 hours, entirely at your own pace. Each stop's story unlocks on your phone the moment you arrive — GPS-triggered, hands-free, no guide and no tour group to keep up with.
