This peaceful farmhouse nestled near the Antietam Creek in Sharpsburg, Maryland, saw the bloodiest single day in American history, the Battle of Antietam, the first battle of the Civil War to be fought on northern soil Visit the battlefield. Study our history and learn from it. You can take a tour and see the monument to Clara Barton, the "angel of the battlefield." A woman well ahead of her times, she said,"I may sometimes be willing to teach for nothing, but if paid at all, I shall never do a man's work for less than a man's pay." |
