During the American Civil War, British-crewed warships harassed
Union merchantmen, sinking a total value of over $15,000,000 in
ships and cargo. Considered pirates by the federal government,
these ships and crew were at the center of a largely unknown but
fascinating struggle between Commander James Dunwoody of the
Confederate Navy, U.S. Ambassador Charles Francis Adams, and Consul
Thomas H. Dudley. This history of British assistance to the
Confederate Navy covers that story in full and provides a close
look at the British seamen who manned warships and blockade
runners.
