CHARLESTON - More than 30,000 people are expected to descend on this history-soaked city in two weeks for what's being touted as the last funeral of the Civil War.
The remains of the crewmen who perished on the final voyage of the Confederate submarine Hunley will be buried April 17, four years after they and their vessel were plucked from the briny muck of the Atlantic.
Organizers say the hoopla surrounding the funeral is expected to surpass the attention garnered by the raising of the sunken sub, when Meeting Street church bells pealed and cannons boomed along the harbor.
The 10,000-member funeral procession will include families of the deceased, as well as uniformed Civil War re-enactors, both Confederate and Union, black and white, from as far away as England. They will follow horse-drawn caissons from near the Charleston Battery to Magnolia Cemetery.
In this city where the Civil War began, and some say never ended, the attention lavished on the bones of eight Confederates points up the enduring fascination that the war in general, and the Hunley in particular, has for many Americans.
"Charleston was, and still is, the heartbeat of the Confederacy; it's where the cult of remembrance is brought to high art," said Tony Horwitz, the Pulitzer Prize-winning author of "Confederates in the Attic: Dispatches from the Unfinished Civil War."
