Since that time numerous historians have described the attack in many well-regarded books, yet the event still remains overlooked at times in the minds of the public. The Cannons Roar seeks to remedy that. Rather than providing a third-person, after-the-fact description, acclaimed author Bruce Chadwick will tell the story of the attack from the people who were in the thick of it. In so doing, readers can hear from people themselves, telling a compelling story in a new way that both draws readers in and lets them walk away with a better understanding and appreciation of one of the most dramatic and important events in our nation's history. 600 10 $a Lincoln, Abraham, $d 1809-1865. 651 0 $a Fort Sumter (Charleston, S.C.) $x Siege, 1861. 651 0 $a United States $x History $y Civil War, 1861-1865. 941 $a 4 952 $l NYPE343 $d 20240416010430.0 952 $l HOPC845 $d 20231128010728.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20230804010713.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20230708011617.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=E0024D70E97711ED8437380758ECA4DB 994 $a C0 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
