Chapter IV — OPERATIONS OF 1810
Chapter IV begins as the construction team resumes their labor, unloading the immense cast iron rails meant for the staircase. Each rail, shaped uniquely and weighing several hundred pounds, demanded precise coordination and proper lifting gear. The team used a tripod structure made of spars to hoist these pieces from the ship’s hold onto solid rock, where they were sorted and aligned meticulously.

The Landscape of Fear
The Landscape of Fear presents a vivid portrayal of the growing tensions in 1860, especially in the mind of Edmund Ruffin, a staunch advocate for Southern secession. Ruffin, disheartened by Abraham Lincoln’s nomination as the Republican candidate, had hoped for someone more vehement and divisive, such as William H. Seward, to take the lead for the Republicans.
