About this book
A Victorious Union is by Oliver Optic and is listed in the series The Blue and the Gray Afloat. The text says a steamer was sold at a price far beyond her cost and the purchaser succeeded in getting her into Mobile Bay with a valuable cargo; she was of about eight hundred tons burden, and it was said that she could steam twenty knots an hour.
A commander speaking to Christy mentions Fort Morgan, with Fort Gaines three miles from it on the other side of the channel. A Confederate surgeon says “My patient is not severely wounded; but I should be happy to have you examine his injury.” A passage says Homer Passford, like thousands of others in the South, was a ruined man at the close of the war who had lost his plantation, and that his brother chartered a steamer to bring the family to Bonnydale, but only for a friendly visit.
