SUMMARY:USS Monitor Legacy Program: Second Battle of Sabine Pass
DESCRIPTION:Presenter: John V. Quarstein, Director emeritus of the USS Monitor Center\nAbout the lecture: The French intervention in Mexico created a strategic threat to the Union by enabling Confederate trade through Texas. In 1863, Union forces advanced up the Sabine River, only to be stopped by 49 Confederate defenders at Fort Griffin. Led by Lt. Richard Dowling, the outmatched garrison repelled the assault, capturing and destroying Union vessels in what Jefferson Davis called a remarkable military victory.\nYou can attend this lecture in person or watch it online.
