"Terry is loaded with information on Black David Hunter's raid, the French baguette of Massanutten Mountain, and a flurry of opinions to enliven his narrative: how Jackson was a brilliant crank, how Turner Ashby was an overrated hellcat, how Virginia was the cockpit of invasion ...... Highly recommended."

"Take this tour! It was my personal favorite as a history buff. Terry has insight and delights in providing detailed answers to all our many questions. This tour is for any and all that have a passion for history. Terry is knowledgeable with many fascinating tidbits about this area's Civil War battles and the people who fought them,... a delightful afternoon."
