Each year, students in Steve Dement’s class visit the locations of the Texas’ troops on the Vicksburg battlefield, then the group travels to Natchez where they enjoy dinner at Monmouth Plantation. The tour concludes with a visit to Frogmore Plantation, a working cotton plantation since the early 1800s.
