Description:

- A History Book Club Selection

Revered by the Confederacy for his daring sea raids, dismissed by his northern contemporaries as nothing more than a pirate, Semmes remains a compelling figure in American military history. During a two-year cruise, his Alabama took nearly 100 Federal merchant vessels out of the war. In her final battle she engaged in an epic clash befitting the last one-on-one duel of wooden ships. Confederate Raider tells the fascinating story of this unyielding and courageous man, commander of the most successful sea raider of all time.
