Excerpt from The Blockade Runner
He held his mouth close to the young man' s ear so that the word should not be blown back down his throat.
A heavy winter's gale was shrieking through the rigging of the vessel, and the dark sea was running furiously.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book captivatingly recounts the wartime exploits of swashbuckling blockade runner Captain Ralph Powell and his trusty Foxhound. Set against the tense backdrop of the American Civil War, when the blockades of Confederate ports grew evermore vigilant, the captain and his skilled crew defied the odds time and again to smuggle valuable cargo across the choppy seas. Their illicit missions were more than just daring escapades in the face of danger, however. For every successful run, vital supplies such as weapons and munitions reached the Confederacy, bolstering their cause against the Union. The author deftly interweaves the suspenseful tale of the Foxhound with a seamy subplot of treachery and conflicting loyalties. The reader is taken on a thrilling historical adventure, providing a vivid glimpse into the infamous blockade running trade and its pivotal role in shaping the course of the Civil War.
