It was
an open-handed, open-hearted city
Fittingly, the first shots of the Civil War were fired at Fort Sumter,
in Charleston harborTo most of the world Charleston was the symbol
of the mysterious and magical, moss-hung, magnolia-scented South
To
Charlestonians as well"Proud and arrogant
Charleston" was the refrain in New York and Boston newspapers
Union
military officials were determined to destroy the flower-filled,
pastel-painted old cityThe harbor entrance was blockaded first |
