Phillip Steinmetz’s Reviews > Six Miles from Charleston, Five Minutes to Hell: The Battle of Seccessionville, June 16, 1862 > Status Update

So far, very interesting account of the Union’s attempt to take Charleston by force, only to be stymied at the peninsula called Secessionville. Unable to take the vital Confederate Tower Battery, there were no further attempts to attack Charleston until Sherman’s March north from Savannah in 1865. This book goes into great detail setting the scene for the Union’s futile attempts and subsequent moves thereafter
