BLOCKADE RUNNING TO NASSAU PROVIDES A REVIEW OF NATIONAL AND INTERNATIONAL EVENTS IN WHICH THE SMALL, TRADITIONALLY POOR BRITISH COLONIAL OUT-POST IN THE BAHAMAS BECAME A PIVOTAL TRANS-SHIPMENT POINT FOR THE MOVEMENT OF SUPPLIES AND COMMODITIES BETWEEN THE FEDERAL-BLOCKADED CONFEDERATE STATES AND MERCHANT HOUSES, COMMODITY MARKETS AND SHIPYARDS IN A TECHNICALLY NEUTRAL GREAT BRITAIN. DURING THE AMERICAN CIVIL WAR (1860-1865), NASSAU BENEFITTED SIGNIFICANTLY FROM FACILITATING THE BRISK INTERNATIONAL TRADE THROUGH WAREHOUSE STORAGE, HANDLING AND COLLECTION OF BROKERAGE FEES AND TAXES. THOUSANDS OF INTERNATIONAL "GUESTS" DESCENDED UPON THE COLONIAL ISLAND CAPITAL TO BUR AND SELL CRITICALLY DEMANDED SUPPLIES OF COTTON DESTINED FOR ENGLISH MILLS, AND ARMS, FOOD, MEDICINES AND OTHER ESSENTIAL GOODS DENIED THE SOUTHERN STATES. NASSAU THRIVED ECONOMICALLY DURING THE PERIOD, DRAWING HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE FROM OTHER ISLANDS IN THE CHAIN TO MIGRATE TO NASSAU IN SEARCH OF EMPLOYMENT. AS A RESULT, MANY OUT ISLAND COMMUNITIES WERE ABANDONED AS THE DEMOGRAPHIC SHIFT DIVIDED FAMILIES WHEN PARENTS LEFT CHILDREN IN THE CARE OF OTHER KIN OR FRIENDS TO FOLLOW THE "YELLOW-BRICK ROAD" LEADING TO NASSAU. CRIME LEVELS AND FOOD PRICES ROSE SIGNIFICANTLY DURING THE YEARS OF CONFLICT. IN 1865, THE CONFLICT ENDED, THE BLOCKADE WAS LIFTED AND THE TRANS-SHIPMENT OF GOODS THROUGH NASSAU CEASED. ONCE AGAIN, THE ISLANDS REVERTED INTO ABJECT POVERTY, LEAVING MANY UNEMPLOYED STILL SETTLED IN OVER-CROWDED CONDITIONS IN NASSAU. ADDING INSULT TO INJURY, A HURRICANE DEVASTATED THE ISLANDS THAT YEAR AND VIRTUALLY DESTROYED MANY OF THE INFRASTRUCTURAL PUBLIC WORK IMPROVEMENTS IMPLEMENTED WITH THE INCREASED PUBLIC PURSE CREATED BY FACILITATION OF THE BLOCKADE RUNNING ACTIVITIES OF THE PREVIOUS YEARS.
