Re: Mine Warefare...Fort Moultrie and Sumter
Yes, we did, but it was very interesting, Edward. I imagine the Presidents before Lincoln, except possibly Jackson, would not have strayed so far from tradition. And Jackson's offense was more in ignoring the Supreme Court in the Cherokee claim to be a Nation, when he said, "They made the decision, let them enforce it." Or words to that effect. Thus occurred the Trail of Tears. Stan
