in the battle to preserve Southern heritage, pride, rights and symbols all over
the South. Vicksburg stands today as a monument
to the Old South. Within its boundaries is a capsule of preserved history and a
virtual study of the War For Southern Independence. Tour antebellum homes, museums and
churches. Take a 16-mile driving tour of the 1,800 acre Vicksburg National

While
in Jackson, tour our state capital once known as "Chimneyville".
This was a well-deserved nickname since it was put to the torch on three separate
occasions by rampaging Union forces during the War For Southern Independence. Tour the Old Capitol Museum, the Governor's Mansion,
Boyd House "The Oaks," City Hall and Manship House, all of which
survived the war.
