Listen to Rick Hatcher, author of Thunder in the Harbor, a new history on Fort Sumter in the Civil War, discuss his book with the Friends of Charleston National Park. Rick was the Historian of Fort Sumter from 1992 until his retirement in 2015 and was inspired to write this book because the only publication available on the history of Fort Sumter was the National Park Service Fort Sumter Handbook. Thunder in the Harbor provides details and a full history of Fort Sumter.
