The American civil war then and now
The women who dug the graves, the kids who watched the largest battle in US history – and the slaves forced to help fighters at the front. 150 years after the last shots were fired, Guardian photographer David Levene travelled across the US photographing the sites scarred by the American civil war

Very interesting interactive site where pictures taken in the Civil War are shown as they are today from virtually the same positions.  The older picture morphs to the modern one so a person can see how things have changed.
