In the winter of 1861, Union armies had failed to win any significant victories over their Confederate counterparts. The Northern populace, overwhelmed by the bloodshed, questioned whether the costs of the war were too high. President Lincoln despondently wondered if he was going to lose the Union. As a result, tension was incredibly high when Union hero Ambrose Burnside embarked for coastal North Carolina. With the eyes of the nation and world on little Roanoke Island in the Outer Banks, Burnside began his amphibious assault on the beaches and earned a victory that shifted control of Southern waters. Join author and historian Michael Zatarga as he traces the story of the crucial fight on Roanoke Island.

Massey I spent a couple weeks last year discovering the Civil War along North Carolina’s Outer Banks. This is one of the area’s that gets crossed over, along with its remarkable stories. I enjoyed an excellent ranger program at the Roanoke Island NHP by Michael Zatarga. I talked with him after the program and he mentioned that we were “friends” on social media. Small world! I found him to be most knowledgeable and eager to share his passion for history.On a subsequent visit he and I had a lengthy discussion of the Civil War in the area. I had already visited most of the places that he mentioned, but he added greater detail to the information that I had gathered. He did direct me to a few of the “spots” that only the locals know about. I was asking about books in the gift shop reflecting the war in the area, when he mentioned that he had this one in the works. I did buy the ones he recommended, but anxiously awaited for this one to come out!Now to the book, I have mentioned before how much I love The History Press Civil War Sesquicentennial Series. They pack a wealth of information into each volume, saving one from reading a much larger array of material to garner as much detail. These volumes are loaded with maps and photos which gives a face to the place. This one is not as map heavy as some, but still is a grand read.Having visited the area and walked the ground, this was more like a review which refreshed my memory. It did add to my knowledge of the Civil War in the Outer Banks. It would have been a great resource to have had while I was visiting the area. If you plan to visit the Out Banks, by all means take this book along, and by all means visit the author at the Roanoke Island NHP, you’ll be glad you did. If you just want to learn about the war on the Outer Banks, then this is your book.

Westcott This book is a must read for anyone interested in the history of the Civil War in general and its effect on the Outer Banks in particular. The author does a wonderful job of setting the stage for the battle with in-depth information about the reasoning behind the battle, the personalities behind the principle characters and of course the battle itself. Rather than being strictly a historical accounting the author has written in an easy and fun to read style, creating a wonderful mind's eye picture of the Battle of Roanoke Island.

It was thoroughly enjoyable to read! If was extremely well researched, comprehensive, entertaining, and very informative. The background stories about the ships of the fleet, the unique personalities from each side and events leading up to the battle made the book difficult to put down. While many folks may regard historic publications as "dry", this cannot be said about this work. This book did an outstanding job, bringing a battle that escaped the "historic limelight" to life. Thanks again to Michael Zatarga for his diligence and hard work to continue to bring history to life!!!
