Confederate Capital

  Richmond, Virginia

Richmond at first thrived as the capital of the Confederacy. Then starved. Then burned when, at last, Robert E. Lee's forces were forced to retreat, leaving the city defenseless.

Being from the South, I love to go to Richmond, but I am from the Roanoke area, Buchanan,

Are you a Virginia girl.

Have a great week.
