Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book documents the coastal operations undertaken by the Union Army and Navy during the early stages of the American Civil War. Following the Confederate seizure of various fortifications in the South, the Union launched an amphibious expedition to capture Port Royal, South Carolina, in November 1861. The campaign, led by General Thomas W. Sherman and Commodore Samuel F. DuPont, involved a naval bombardment of Forts Walker and Beauregard, which were defended by Confederate forces under General Thomas F. Drayton. Despite the forts' strong defenses, the Union bombardment proved successful, and the forts were captured. The operation marked a significant victory for the Union, opening up the important port of Port Royal and providing a base for future operations in the region. The author provides detailed accounts of the planning, execution, and aftermath of the expedition, shedding light on the strategies and challenges faced by both sides during this pivotal moment in the war.
