About this book
The Union blockade of the Southern coast during the Civil War is at the centre of this story. It is the third book of the Blue and the Gray Afloat, after Taken by the Enemy and Within the Enemy's Lines.
The author notes that he does not claim the weight of history, and believes that the events he narrates are possible and probable. A frontispiece shows Mulgrum and the engineer. The dedication jokes that his son-in-law is always "on the blockade" against melancholy. It appeared in 1890.
