Summary: Surprised me--I never knew about this Navy!
Comment: I purchased the book as a gift for my father. Before I saw him, I picked it up, and read it in a very short time. Frankly, I was completely unaware of this aspect of the war. It almost seems as though the Confederate Navy was successfully battling the mighty Union Navy with only chewing gum, shoe strings, and cast-off wood. This was a very interesting book. The chapters are well written and easy to follow, and are written in an exciting and reader engrossing style. No technical language is necessary to understand or follow the descriptions in this book. It includes both interesting background information about key officers, and descriptions of the battles themselves. My father also liked it!

Summary: Part 2 of an Epic
Comment: R. Thomas Campbell continues his series of anecdotal accounts of the Confederate Navy. While anecdotal books can be tiresome, Campbell's is well-written and entertaining, and taken with the other three books in the series, approaches epic proportions. Entertaining and informative.
