On April 24, 1862, Federal gunboats made their way past two Confederate forts to ascend the Mississippi River, and the Union navy captured New Orleans. News of the loss of the City came to Jefferson Davis as an absolute shock. In this study, Chester Hearn examines the decisions, actions, individuals, and events to explain why.
