Fortress Monroe, Old Point Comfort, Virginia, 1862-1867.Artist: R Hinshelwood
Fortress Monroe, Old Point Comfort, Virginia, 1862-1867. Although the state of Virginia seceded to become part of the Confederacy in April 1861, President Lincoln ordered that the garrison at Fort Monroe be reinforced to ensure it stayed in Union hands. This it did and the fort served as an important base from which several land and naval operations were launched during the Civil War. An engraving from volume I of The War with the South : a History of the Late Rebellion, by Robert Tomes, Benjamin G Smith, New York, Virtue & Yorston, 3 Volumes, 1862-1867.
