About this Event

Fort Monroe had the most advance defense systems from the beginning of the Third System in the 1800s, to the Endicott Period of the early 1900s.

Join us for a talk and tour with Terry McGovern, author of American Coastal Defenses 1885-1950, and former Chairman of the Coast Defense Study Group to learn about the design and use of the Endicott batteries and take a close-up tour of the works.
