Wilmington Campaign Last Departing Rays of Hope

While prior books on the battle to capture Wilmington, North Carolina, have focused solely on the epic struggles for Fort Fisher, in many respects this was just the beginning of the campaign. In addition to complete coverage (with significant new information) of both battles for Fort Fisher, "The Wilmington Campaign" includes the first detailed examination of the attack and defence of Fort Anderson. It also features blow-by-blow accounts of the defence of the Sugar Loaf Line and of the operations of Federal warships on the Cape Fear River. This masterpiece of military history proves yet again that there is still much to be learned about the American Civil War.Fonvielle, Chris, Jr. is the author of 'Wilmington Campaign Last Departing Rays of Hope', published 2001 under ISBN 9780811729918 and ISBN 0811729915.
