Description

"No terms except immediate and unconditional surrender."  Those fateful words sealed the destiny of soldiers, officers, and generals at Fort Donelson in 1862.

Join a park ranger to learn about the impact of the surrender of almost 13,000 soldiers and how the war effort was affected.  The hotel was the first meeting location between Generals Ulysses S. Grant and Simon B. Buckner.
