This website shows the importance that PGT Beauregard had during, and after the civil war. He was a major leader in tactics for the war leaders for the South.

This book is a full biography of Beauregard’s life. It covers his life from his childhood and education at West Point, to his career after the war.

This website shows how the government during the Civil War was weak on both sides. This shows how PGT was secretly educated during the Civil War time, since West Point is in New York City and since PGT is from and works for the Confederate states he should of never been educated by a school from the North.

This website was helpful because it showed interaction between P.G.T Beauregard and fellow other Military leaders such as Maj. Robert Anderson.

Anderson to evacuate the city before continuing to bombard Fort Sumter.

General Beauregard realized that he didn’t have enough to properly change between fires, which caused malfunctions in mortar fire.
