Memoirs of Service Afloat, During the War Between the States is a two-volume memoir written by Raphael Semmes, a Confederate naval officer, and published in 1869. The book recounts Semmes' experiences as the captain of the CSS Alabama, a Confederate commerce raider, during the American Civil War. Semmes provides detailed accounts of the Alabama's engagements with Union warships and his strategies for evading capture. The second volume continues Semmes' narrative, covering his time as the commander of the CSS Sumter and his eventual capture by the Union navy. The book offers a unique perspective on the naval aspects of the Civil War and provides insight into the motivations and tactics of the Confederate navy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
