Book Synopsis
A study of the Confederacy's inept attempts to win foreign support for its cause

Trade Review

Merli's ability to engage his reader in the tale and history of the CSS Alabama is amazing; it truly is a page-turner and I would wager would be such a page-turner for those not already predisposed to reading about such history. 1/11/2010
