Summary edit

Description

"Baseball at Fort Pulaski. Though baseball existed prior to the Civil War, it became extremely popular during that time. Soldiers used sports to escape both the horror of battle and the boredom of garrison life. One of the earliest known photographs of a baseball game was taken inside Fort Pulaski in 1862 and featured members of the 48th New York Infantry." (Trading card from Fort Pulaski National Monument in Georgia)
