The Breakthrough at Petersburg, April 2, 1865, Pamplin Historical Park
After more than nine months of trench warfare around Petersburg, VA, Union commander U.S. Grant ordered an all-out attack against Robert E. Lee's lines at dawn April 2, 1865. This audio tour of Pamplin Historical Park's Breakthrough Trail covers a critical area of that assault, and offers a good look at part of the well-preserved Confederate defensive line.
