Photographic War History. The War For The Union. 1861-1865. 455. Confederate Fortifications, Yorktown, Va. When the Rebels evacuated Yorktown, they destroyed as many of their cannon as possible. This shows the remains of a heavy gun which was purposely bursted by them. Fragments of the gun strew the ground, together with shell and grape shot. The soldiers seen in the fort are Union Zouaves.
