O tym produkcie

Product Information

The CSS"Shenandoah" commenced the last, most quixotic sea story of the Civil War. Before its voyage was over, 34 Union merchant and whaling ships and their cargoes would be sunk. Four months after the Civil War was over, the captain learned the war was over, and he had gone from being an enemy combatant to a pirate, a hangable offense.

Reviews
"Tom Chaffin's latest is a superb account of how the Confederate raider Shenandoah brought the American Civil War to the farthest reaches of the world. A book that will fascinate Civil War buffs and maritime aficionados alike, Sea of Gray is also the very human story of how a captain and his crew coped with one of the strangest circumnavigations in American history--an absorbing and illuminating read." -- Nathaniel Philbrick, author of In the Heart of the Sea and Sea of Glory "In Sea of Gray, Tom Chaffin has delivered a rollicking ride of a book: the Quixotic trek of Confederate raiders at sea, at war without cause or country. Civil War buffs take note: more than just compulsively readable or good fun, this happens to be a long overdue study as well." --Jay Winik, author, April 1865: The Month That Saved America "A thorough, colorful, readable rendering of one of the most intriguing stories of the Civil War--the round-the-world voyage of the Confederate Raider Shenandoah" -- Evan Thomas, author of John Paul Jones: Sailor, Hero, Father of the American Navy   "Fans of naval history and of the Civil War will relish this gripping story of the Shenandoah's circumnavigation of the globe, covering 58,000 miles and destroying 32 American merchant and whaling vessels." --James M. McPherson, Pulitzer Prize winning author of Battle Cry of Freedom, "Tom Chaffin tells the story of the single cruise ably in Sea of Gray: The Around-the-World Odyssey of the Confederate Raider Shenandoah. The story has been told before, but never with such style or drama. Research in all the pertinent sources grounds a narrative that moves quickly but authoritatively, with insightful inner glimpses of the men of the Shenandoah, especially Captain James I. Waddell as he faced ending a distinguished naval career branded as an outlaw. Virtually all of the Confederacy's experiments with unconventional warfare provide tales of interest and subjects to provoke thought about war itself, but none more than this one of a lonely vessel whose war began as a contest against one nation, and ended in a battle with the globe itself." --William C. Davis, writing in the History Book Club Review "Tom Chaffin's latest is a superb account of how the Confederate raider Shenandoah brought the American Civil War to the farthest reaches of the world.
