Filled with historic landmarks and, some would say, ghosts, the bloody past of Franklin, Tennessee is always visible to visitors and locals alike. The site of one of the most devastating battles of the Civil War, Franklin was at the center of the bestselling novel, "The Widow of the South," set at Carnton Historic Plantation. Serving first as a field hospital and then cemetery for over a thousand wounded Confederate soldiers, Carnton is now a museum offering a vision into this terrible past.
