About this product
Product Information
1862. Admiral David Farragut orders enclaves to be established in Texas as part of the Federal blockade. This involves attempts against Corpus Christi, Sabine Pass, Galveston, and Port Lavaca. By the end of the year Federal troops reduce the defenses of Sabine Pass and occupy Galveston, the state's principal port. However, the gains prove tenuous. While Federal sailors await Union infantry reinforcements, the Confederates, under Gen. John B. Magruder, seize the initiative. They organize a makeshift fleet of cottonclads --lightly armed and armored, but good platforms for sharpshooters--and boldly attack the Union fleet whenever it lies close to shore. Meanwhile, Confederate troops bombard from land. Ultimately, this counterattack results in the destruction or capture of four Union warships and three supply vessels and temporarily lifts the blockade. A lively account of innovative and daring tactics against superior forces by a dynamic historian.

Thank you for the card of memories of Brynaman Public Hall, Brynaman. As we the locals know it has the hall. It is the best independent cinema in Wales and the UK. Not far off of reaching 100 years and run by volunteers. Not only does the hall runs the films there every day, there are two screens for the choice of films that are available to see. The hall has given several opportunities to different people of all ages including myself to participate in the local Brynaman Eisteddfod. Diolch
