Civil War Sea Battles: Seafights and Shipwrecks in the War Between the States (Civil War Guides)

Unknown to the general public, detailed logbooks of most Civil War vessels have survived and now lie in the National Archives. Using research from these and other official records, the author has written detailed accounts of the most important events in Civil War maritime history, including battles, amphibious assaults, shipwrecks, court-martials, and even the yellow fever epidemics of 1862 and 1864.
