Does the Civil War Trust or the National Parks Service have an accessible list or ranking on the state of preservation of Civil War Battlefields. Most people will be aware that Gettysburg or Antietam are well worth a visit but given the number and spread of Civil War battle sites, is there any central place you can go to check if all that's left is the size of a basketball court and a small museum? |

There is this from the National Park Service and The American Battlefield Protection Program. link |

Many Thanks for the response. The State by State Battlefield Preservation Reports on the NPS/ABPP site nails it! |

The APCWS joined with the Civil War Trust years ago, it is no longer an independent organization. Between the CWT and the link provided by Major Mike, you have it pretty well covered. |
