Jules Verne is the author of many classic, world-famous novels such
as Around the World in 80 Days and Journey to the Centre of the
Earth. In this brand-new translation of The Blockade Runners, Verne
moves seamlessly between Scotland and the southern states of the US
during the American Civil War. With the southern harbours
effectively sealed by the North, Scottish industrialist James
Playfair must run a daring Federalist blockade of a Charleston
harbour in an effort to trade supplies for cotton and to rescue a
young girl's father, held prisoner by the Confederates. As the
blockade grows tighter, will Playfair risk all to save the man, or
will he head back to Scotland in safety with his hold full of
precious cotton? The Blockade Runners is a translation of Les
Forceurs de Blocus (1871). As a novella, it was originally included
along with A Floating City in the first English and French
editions.
