You could say Tom is interested in American history and the Civil War, but that would be an understatement. He is passionate about it. He loves traveling to key battlefields across the nation, where he feels like he's right there in the midst of it all. As a member of the Gozaic community, Tom can create itineraries for all his journeys and share his experiences visiting great Civil War sites. He can also connect with other Civil War enthusiasts and discover interesting facts about historic battlefields that he didn't already know.

Tom wants to expand his experience retracing Civil War history with a long-weekend trip. Tom explores Gozaic and reads several reviews from other Gozaic members who gave glowing reviews of Vicksburg, Mississippi. He then saves a few select Vicksburg historic sites and activities to his itinerary, including a battlefield and a unique local restaurant. With Gozaic, Tom can build a full itinerary to enjoy the rich heritage experiences that matter most to him.

Tom can write reviews of the Civil War battlefields and heritage locations he knows so well, sharing his expertise and experiences with the rest of the Gozaic community. The experiences and opinions of Gozaic members have impact, and help everyone in the community get the best information on visiting heritage locations.

Tom knows his "My Gozaic" personal profile is a safe place to keep Itineraries, photos, videos and more. He uses his profile to help connect with others who share his interest in Civil War history – and Tom has the peace-of-mind knowing he controls what personal information to share or keep private.

Tom wants to share his recent visit to Antietam, Maryland with his friends on Gozaic, so he posts some photos of the poignant battleground that moved and humbled him. It turns out that Bill, another Gozaic member, was at Antietam the same day. Now they are using Gozaic to plan a tour of Civil War battlefields in Virginia together.

Tom is a member of the "Civil War Travel" Circle, where he often answers fellow Gozaic members' questions about Antietam and its living history reenactments. He recently gave the rest of the Circle something to chew on by asking, "Can anyone recommend a nice restaurant near Vicksburg?" A longtime Mississippi native was able to help him out, so Tom added the restaurant to his Gozaic Itinerary.
