  • After Fort Fisher fell to Union forces, the Confederates still held powerful Fort Anderson. Could a veteran of Antietam and Franklin compromise the fort? Join historian Chris Fonvielle Jr. and Site Manager Jim McKee at the “best preserved Confederate earthen fort”!

    Great video! Need to go visit this fort too. We’ve been to fort fisher and enjoyed it. But also couldn’t help but notice Jim’s Carolina Hurricanes hat. We are diehard Nashville Predators fans here n Chattanooga and are currently watching them play the hurricanes. Lol

    I have seen the sign several times. I thought it was another Ft Fisher, just a sand dune. I remember when they pulled the gun at Ft Fisher out of the water and started preserving Fisher.

    • @leondarko8491

      Wow when did they start pulling out the gun? This most recent visit to Fort Fisher that I made I found some old civil war bullet casings and an actual bullet. I also found a button for an old uniform and it had a train on it. I was STUNNED. I'm obsessed with history, more fascinated by the revolutionary war..

      @@leondarko8491 It was during the 80's I think. When they started trying to save what was left of the fort. They pulled a gun out of the water and saved the battery they have now. You have to go to the museum and use your imagination on how big this fort was

    Great scenery and. enthusiasm, but I was lost throughout the video. Please, please, please, in the future use good quality 5 color terrain maps to orient the audience as to what you are describing. I knew nothing about this particular battle before watching this and unfortunately I learned little about it other than the fort was defeated from the rear. The one map that was used, was an all tan and blank period map which was not helpful. Please keep making these videos but remember that a map is worth a thousand words, at least. Finally you might add animated arrows to the a map to show movement and specific features or locations. Otherwise I do applaud you work. Thanks.

    Why was this Battlefield preserved so well. Being water front property I would have thought it would have been developed.

    • @ericballard6789

      It’s right next to a nuclear power plant, but I’m not sure how much of it is that or if it’s privately owned.

    • @ericballard6789
      @ericballard6789 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      I believe it is owned by the state too. There is a military complex right near by as well

    • @mmiller626
      @mmiller626 3 ปีที่แล้ว

      The fort is on state land, bordered on the south side by Military Terminal Sunny Pount (roughly 8500 acres), surrounded on the west and north by Orton Plantation which is another 5,000 acres+/- , so luckily the fort is in a protected location.

      As an Atlantic Beach Nc native I can vouch. The staff there has done one of the best jobs preserving a civil war era fort I have ever seen (arguably the best as almost all of it is in tact and in good shape and kept up pristinely)

    Didn't Robert E Lee oversee the fortifications along that coast line early on in the war ? 🇦🇺

    USS Montauk was the ship on which the Autopsy of John Wilkes Booth took place at or near the Navy Yard in Washington DC in April 1865.
