Description

First-hand account of naval action during the American Civil War. From the private journals an other papers of Commander R. Semmes, C.S.N. and other officers. The advertisement to the London edition begins: "The following account of the cruise of the two Confederate States steamers--Sumter and Alabama--is taken from the private journals and other papers of Captain Semmes. It has been found necessary occasionally to adopt a narrative form, but the endeavour has been throughout to adhere as closely as possible to that officer's own words."
