This is the third in Poyer’s series of Civil War naval fiction (earlier installemtns: Fire on the Water; A Country of Our Own). Once again, Poyer combines rich characterization and a deep technical knowledge to tell an exciting, absorbing tale. For more information, check out Poyer’s website at www.poyer.com.
