================================
"A number of museums and historical groups are commemorating this year's 150th anniversary of the start of the Civil War. Among the best exhibits: "An American Turning Point: The Civil War in Virginia." Assembled by the Virginia Historical Society in Richmond, the show features more than 200 objects (among them: Gen. Stonewall Jackson's pocket watch), interactive technology (can you text faster than a telegraph operator from the 1860s?) and 17 audio-visual programs (including an all-too-vivid battle scene)."
