In 2012, Shiloh National Military Park will join the nation in commemorating the 150th anniversary of the bloody Battle of Shiloh. Throughout this Sesquicentennial Americans will be revisiting the Civil War, exploring the causes and effects of the struggle and discovering how the Civil War changed the course of American history.
A variety of events will be hosted by Shiloh Battlefield during the anniversary including ranger led battlefield hikes, the debut of the new Shiloh visitor center film, and a "Grand Illumination" on April 7.
