Manassas VA - Stone House - a photo on Flickriver

July 21st is the 150th anniversary of the first battle of Manassas (Southern name) or Bull Run (Northern name) in the American Civil War (Aug 1862 saw another, larger battle at this same site). Manassas is in Virginia a short distance from Washington D.C. The war had begun in April, but this was the first real battle. Both sides were full of enthusiastic young volunteers who were sure the war was going to be of short duration. Ten hours of fierce fighting and 900 casualties changed any notion of a short war.
The Stone House is an iconic image of this battlefield and was used as a field hospital in both battles by the North.
