Mark Herman's Fort Sumter
Bruce is joined once again by noted game designer Mark Herman to discuss Fort Sumter: The Secession Crisis, 1860-61. Fort Sumter is a short-form card driven game that highlights the tumultuous time leading up to the Civil War. In this wide-ranging discussion Bruce and Mark talk about the high amount of wargames coming to market, crisis dimensions, and the invasion of Japan.

In this episode Mark Herman suggests that players will get more out of the game if they know more about the history. I am looking for a good book on the subject to accompany the game. Any suggestions?

 

David Detzer's Allegiance seems to be at the top of the search results, is that the go-to book on the the secession crisis?
