Review
0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Great Grandpa's BattleBy JimMy great grandfather was in the Battle for Fort Wagner; S.C.; my motivation for buying the book. I knew it wasn't just the 54th Massachusetts that charged the wall from stories retained in family history. My great grandpa charged; too; in an Ohio regiment. It was the 6th Connecticut that got inside the walls before being expelled by a rebel counterattack. Interesting how movies change history without blushing over their lies. Of course; the 54th weren't any less heroic for not being what a screenwriter says they were. Wise is not a wordsmith who paints vivid pictures but the prose is still good. Especially appreciated were many maps that help make sense of Yankee maneuvers and troop landings; on what were actually a scattering of large sandbar islands. Statistical tables at the end are also useful for those of us into details. According to them; my great grandfather's 62nd Ohio lost 27 men killed outright with a similar number missing and unaccounted for. Even more died of sickness amid the mosquitoes and sand fleas..0 of 0 people found the following review helpful. Five StarsBy Michelle IsenhoffVery readable and extremely helpful as I researched my novel set in Charleston in this era.1 of 1 people found the following review helpful. Excellent narrativeBy KJSVery well detailed. Reads almost like a novel; not a history book. Facts information is accurate. A complete description of the campaign for Charleston. Details the politics which were a critical part of the entire Civil War.
