Framed Print of American Civil War, Battle of Island Number Ten, 1862
Lithograph entitled and captioned: "Bombardment and capture of Island Number Ten on the Mississippi River, April 7, 1862 by the gunboat and mortar fleet under command of Commander A.H. Foote." The Battle of Island Number Ten was an engagement at the New Madrid on the Mississippi River during the American Civil War, lasting from February 28 to April 8, 1862. The position, an island at the base of a tight double turn in the course of the river, was held by the Confederates from the early days of the war. It was an excellent site to impede Union efforts to invade the South along the river. Union gunboats and mortar rafts came down to attack Island No. 10 from the river. The Union victory marked the first time the Confederate army lost a position on the Mississippi River in battle. Andrew Hull Foote (September 12, 1806 - June 26, 1863) was an American naval officer noted for his service in the American Civil War and for his contributions to several naval reforms in the years prior to the war. When the war came, he was appointed to command of the Western Gunboat Flotilla, predecessor of the Mississippi River Squadron. He was among the first naval officers to be promoted to the then-new rank of rear admiral. © Researchers / Science Source
