That interminable pace is one you will remember as you snake your way along the Vicksburg National Military Park's 16-mile-long, one-lane, one-way tour road, often behind other visitors driving very slowly. What could be a 40-minute trip can take three hours, especially for those using the mobile phone tour or the in-car CD (complete with narration, Civil War music, and sound effects) available in the Visitor Center gift shop. -
