The
CSS Hunley: The Greatest Undersea... Nine men in a rigged-out
steam boiler cranked out of Breach Inlet near Mt. Pleasant, S.C. and
changed naval history forever. It was not until 50 years later in 1914
that the next ship would be brought down by a submarine. This crisply
written account is an excellent introduction to one of the most
fascinating subplots of the entire War for Southern Independence.

| Union
and Confederate Submarine Warfare... Most
Civil War enthusiasts have heard about the Hunley, the
Confederate submarine that sank the USS Housatonic on February
17, 1864. Less well known, however, is that the Hunley was not
alone in the water. Both the Union and the Confederacy built
submarines; many were operational and patrolled for enemy ships

| The
Hunley Produced for Turner Network
Television and originally broadcast in the summer of 1999, The
Hunley is a straightforward, engrossing historical drama focusing
on a little-known chapter of the Civil War: the introduction of the
submarine into American naval warfare off the shore of war-torn
Charleston, South Carolina, in 1864.

tour-de-force overview of the Confederate Navy. His contributors
include Bob Holcombe of the Confederate Naval Museum, Dave Sullivan,
well-known researcher of the Marine Corps in the Civil War, and
virtually every authority on the Confederate Navy and the naval Civil
War writing today. Well-coordinated, well-illustrated, well done!
Small wonder that it's advanced by the Naval Institute Press, which
has a tradition of promoting and publishing fine books. |

| Raising
the Hunley : The Remarkable... The history of the
Confederate submarine H. L. Hunley is as astonishing as its
disappearance. On February 17, 1864, after a legendary encounter with
a Union battleship, the iron “fish boat” vanished without a trace
somewhere off the coast of South Carolina. For more than a century the
fate of the Hunley remained one of the great unsolved mysteries
of the Civil War. Then, on August 8, 2000, with thousands of
spectators crowding Charleston Harbor, the Hunley was raised
from the bottom of the sea and towed ashore. Now, award-winning
journalists Brian Hicks and Schuyler Kropf offer new insights into the
Hunley’s final hours and recount the amazing true story of
its rescue. This item will be released on March 26, 2002. You may order it now and it will ship to you when it arrives. THERE IS A GREAT DISCOUNT ON THIS BOOK

Hunley: Submarines, Sacrifice, and... The Hunley: Submarines,
Sacrifice & Success in the Civil War" (revised edition) by

timely, as the Confederate submarine H.L. Hunley, which lay off
Sullivan's Island near Charleston, South Carolina, was raised recently
from its watery grave. The Hunley was the first submarine in history
to sink an enemy warship
