Hardcover. Condizione: Near Fine. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good Plus. First Edition. 2002. 191pp. B&W illustrations. "Built secretly by Laird's on the Mersey, to the order of the Confederate States during the American Civil War, the Alabama embarked on a hugely destructive world-wide campaign against Federal shipping that made the ship a household name. Despite enduring interest in the ship, many details of her structure and fitting are still a matter of debate. The clandestine nature of the ship's construction and the fact that she was only armed after leaving British waters produced minimal and contradictory evidence. For this book the author responded to the challenge by sifting contemporary photographs, paintings, models and plans - as well as consulting the archaeologists working on the wreck - to develop a set of drawings on the ship. Furthermore, the visual evidence is also reproduced, with the author's commentary on their accuracy." Both book and unclipped dust jacket are in excellent condition. All contents are tight and clean. There are no inscriptions. PLEASE NOTE: Heavy book so extra will be needed for shipping to non-UK customers.…
