The Guns of Fort Fisher A Pictorial Study of Ordnance
Usually printed in 3 - 5 business days
This book takes a hard look at the cannon reported to have been captured by Union forces in Fort Fisher on January 15, 1865 by comparing Federal reports to actual photographs taken by photographer Timothy O'Sullivan just days after the battle. Some decades-old misconceptions are clarified and some new revelations are discovered along the way. A must for those readers with both historical interests and those with an affinity for all things related to artillery. Complete with glossary, the book makes short work of the technical aspects and puts each of them into an easily understood perspective.
