Battle of Mobile Bay
The Battle of Mobile Bay was a naval battle fought on August 5 1864, during the American Civil War. In addition to shutting down one of the two remaining Confederate ports, this Union victory (together with the capture of Atlanta), was a significant boost for Abraham Lincoln's bid for re-election.
