Roper Hospital in Charleston. Where Emily worked with Dr. Malone.

Christ Church, were Emily attended the wedding in Savannah.

Savannah's Old Cemetery dates back to the original settlement (1731). Kinda funny story we heard during our trip: back in the late 1700s or early 1800s, some of ladies in the DAR thought they’d beautify the cemetery by adding the original tabby sidewalks. So they removed a whole bunch of gravestones and paved right over everyone. Then they realized no one kept track of where the grave markers came from. They are now fastened to one of the walls surrounding the cemetery. Poor dead guys...

The Marshall House where Emily stayed during her trip to Savannah...and where my husband and I stayed for our 20th anniversary (6 mo. after the book published). SO FUN to stay in the same building as my character!

The Savannah Theater today, on the same plot of ground, though it burned since 1863 and has been rebuilt.

The Factor's Walk in Savannah. The walkways lead directly to the cotton broker's offices (like Thad's father) along the waterfront from the bluff behind. The buildings below were cotton warehouses, located directly on the waterfront.

This was once the busy dockside district on the Savannah waterfront. These buildings were once cotton warehouses. The river is located immediately to the left.

There’s a steep bluff leading down to the waterfront, which I’d read about and described in Blood Moon. I was glad to find I described it pretty accurately. Thanks Google Maps street view! The original (steep!) brick and stone stairs are all over the place with these signs that made me chuckle. We did watch one drunk guy navigate them and thought for sure he was going to fall down and break his crown.

Operations Against the Defenses of Charleston was the lengthy name given to the renewed efforts to take Charleston in 1863. It included three bombardments of Fort Sumter, two battles for Fort Wagner on Morris Island, and the seige of Charleston that would last until the city's fall in 1864.

The Second Battle of Fort Wagner is the first one in which Negro troops fought for the Union (as depicted in the movie "Glory"). Despite being a Confederate victory, it was also the beginning of the end for Charleston. Shows the 54th Massachusetts colored regiment.

$Blood moons occur during lunar eclipses, when the moon passes into the shadow of the earth. The red color comes from refracted light that bends around the earth. The lunar eclipse Emily views at Maple Ridge did in fact occur on June 12, 1862.
