First Manassas

The entire presentation runs 1:45:40 = (one hour, forty five minutes, forty seconds).
It is recommended that you listen to the sections as numbered on the map to get a feel for the order in which the events unfolded during the day of the battle. However, any section may be enjoyed as an independent tour.
These audio files require RealPlayer from www.real.com (look for the free version of RealOne player).

It is important to realize that this is a site under development. We plan to add synchronized graphics and relevant maps to these audio presentations. Please understand that this is a major project which takes many hundreds of hours of planning, design, editing, and assembly. Rather than waiting for the completed project, we have decided to offer the audio portions of the tour now, and add the graphics and maps as they are available. We thank you for your patience, and hope you enjoy these tours.

So click on the map sections or use the links below, and join us now as we learn about the first major land battle of the American Civil War from an eminent historian and master story teller.
