As the opening shots of the Civil War echoed across the landscape, Augusta found itself a city of 12,000 souls. After peaceably kicking out the Federals from the Augusta Arsenal, the populace began forming military units to fight for Georgia. Almost 2000 volunteers ultimately fought for the Confederacy, and many made it back. One could argue though, that Augusta\'s largest and most valuable contribution to the war against Northern Aggression was it\'s industrial capacity. The canal and river mills were put to work making repeating rifles and pistols, muskets, swords, and cannon. The Confederate powder works supplied the gunpowder for most of the Southern war effort, and the textile mills churned out thousands of grey uniforms, making efficient use of the bales of cotton rotting on the Augusta river wharf since the port of Savannah was blockaded.
