The Civil War Tavern.

The tavern should be a place of ease and relaxation where one could go to have a drink and to meet old friends and make new ones. But there wasn’t anything friendly at these taverns. The taverns of this war was a place were one would meet the enemy. Many battles were fought at and around these taverns and when the fight was over some would be turned into hospitals.
