Thoughts on the South

Fort Morgan, alABAMA

Completed in 1834, Fort Morgan was active during four wars — the Civil War, the Spanish-American War, and World Wars I and II. The fort is most famous for its role in the Civil War Battle of Mobile Bay Here, Union Rear Admiral David Farragut damned the torpedoes and went full speed ahead to win the battle. The massive fort contains more than 40 million bricks and pays tribute to the skilled masons, many of whom were enslaved African Americans.

FORT GAINES. ALABAMA

Fort Gaines, located at Dauphin Island along Mobile Bay, was a crucial site for the south during the civil war. The well-preserved ramparts of Fort Gaines have guarded the entrance to Mobile Bay for more than 150 years. Now a historic site, the Fort stands at the eastern tip of Dauphin Island where it commands panoramic views of the bay and the Gulf of Mexico. The Fort was recently designated as one of the Eleven Most Endangered Historic Sites in America due to on-going shoreline erosion.

Fort Powell, Alabama

The fort was the only military installation in Mobile Bay built by the Confederacy. Troops abandoned and blew up the fort on August 5, 1864, under heavy bombardment by the U.S. Navy during the Battle of Mobile Bay.
