The History of Fort Ocracoke in Pamlico Sound - (Civil War) by Robert Smith (Paperback)

The Pamlico Sound is a treasure trove of history, with early colonists using it for protection, Blackbeard the pirate being killed there in 1718, and General Washington relying on it for transportation during the Revolutionary War.

But little did people know that a Confederate bastion of Fort Ocracoke was built in those same waters, capable of mounting fifty guns and part of North Carolina's coastal defense system.

However, after Union victories on nearby Hatteras Island, the fort was destroyed and its whereabouts lost for generations.

But now, author Robert K.

Smith has led an archaeological mission to find the once lost fort and presents the harrowing story of its past and discovery for the first time.

Don't miss out on this incredible opportunity to uncover the secrets of Fort Ocracoke and experience the rich history of Pamlico Sound like never before!
