Abstract:
In December of 1864 Union soldiers headed for New Inlet in an attempt to seize one of the last Confederate forts that protected the thriving port of Wilmington, but Fort Fisher stood in their way. Peters discusses the construction of Fort Fisher and why it stands today to tell the story of the last major stronghold of the Confederacy.
