In recent years two books have been published containing vivid and dramatic accounts of the two high spots in the history of Fort Sumter. In Peter Ashley, the taking of the fort from the Federal forces is unforgettably depicted; in Look Back To Glory, the defense of the Fort against the ironclads of the North marks an epic victory for the South. These two accounts, reprinted together, make this little volume a definite contribution to the Civil War picture. A book for the Southern market primarily, and for libraries and schools.
