Synopsis "The Forgotten Marines: Prelude to Civil War -- Harper's Ferry, October 1859"
Paperback Edition with Annotated Content FORTITUDINE. A chronicle of the U.S. Marines' assignment to, preparation for, and direct participation in the precarious October 1859 conflict at Harper's Ferry, Virginia - John Brown's raid and his capture. An enlivening and accurately detailed historical fiction narrative of the most significant prelude to our Civil War. This Annotated Edition was created for all American Civil War devotees and novices interested in learning more about the U.S. Marines' historic, yet scarcely publicized, involvement in this event. Over 520 instructive annotations have been embedded (displayed in a smaller, gray-shaded typeface) in the text rather than footnoted at the bottom of the page or stacked in numbered order at the end of each chapter or the book. In addition, this annotated edition's unique 57-page appendix is referenced throughout the story. The add-on contains numerous photographs, depictions, and other educative materials. The Annotations and Appendix are designed to enrich each reader's enjoyment beyond the story's plot line. They are also intended to further enlighten all readers about the Marines of that period and the "other" key participants - the B&O Railroad, the township of Harper's Ferry, and the U.S. Armory/Arsenal. As a tribute to all past, present, and future USMC active & reserve personnel, veterans, and retirees, this story brings to life a long-forgotten episode in Marine Corps history. Thank you for your service and self-sacrifice!.SEMPER FI.
