EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white wood engraving from December 1861 takes us back to the early days of the American Civil War. The image showcases Fort Pulaski, a formidable structure situated on Cockspur Island in the Savannah River, Georgia. At this time, it was under Confederate control and proudly displayed the first Confederate flag. The fort's architecture stands tall against the backdrop of a serene river, evoking both strength and historical significance. Its presence symbolizes the intense conflict that divided a nation during this tumultuous period. The intricate details captured by the artist highlight not only the grandeur of Fort Pulaski but also its strategic location along one of America's most important waterways. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported to an era when soldiers in gray uniforms patrolled these very grounds. We can almost hear their footsteps echoing through history as they defend their cause with unwavering determination. This image serves as a poignant reminder of our nation's past struggles and sacrifices made during one of its darkest chapters. It invites us to reflect on how far we have come since those divisive times while acknowledging that there is still work to be done in pursuit of unity and equality for all Americans.
