Whoever said history is boring?

William Barker Cushing was one of the true heroes of the naval Civil War. He consistently defied the enemy and the odds, and came back alive. He almost singlehandedly blew up a Southern ironclad (the CSS Albemarle). Coupled with a section on Cushing's brother, Alonzo, who was at the heart of the third day of Gettysburg, this book will excite, entertain, and educate all fans of the Union and the Navy.

Exciting read!

The book brings to life the brave and bold character of William and his brothers Alonzo, Howard and Milton. Lt. Cushing's exploits during his naval career were quite daring and exciting to read about.
