The district comprises eight counties in the Shenandoah Valley, including the scene of Jackson's Valley Campaign of 1862, Lee's Gettysburg Campaign of 1863 and Sheridan's Shenandoah Campaign of 1864.[1]

Battlefields within the District area include the First and Second battles of Kernstown, the First, Second and Third battles of Winchester and the Battle of New Market.[2]

It is the only one of 49 National Heritage Areas whose name includes the word sequence "National Historic District."[3]

Berkeley and Jefferson counties in West Virginia are seeking to be added to the district.[4]
