Synopsis
Excerpt from The Capture of Fort Fisher
Fort Fisher commanded the last gateway between the Confederate States and the outside world. Its capture with the resulting loss of all the Cape Fear River defences, and of Wilmington, the great importing depot of the South, effectually ended all blockade running. Lee sent me word that Fort Fisher must be held or he could not subsist his army.
