Although it's been many years, I visited Lookout Mountain. I haven't studied the Civil War for quite a while now, so although the story of the cannons sounds familiar, I can't recall who the Northern Captain was.

I used to visit Gettysburg 2-3 times a year, then head down to Antietam. I always preferred visiting the parks during the winter when the tourists weren't around. One of my most enjoyable visits was to Shiloh. It was early December, and I had the whole park practically to myself. The weather was sunny, and it was warm enough to not need a jacket.
