Summary
* Duration: 8 hours and 30 minutes *
The enthralling story of the greatest Civil War battle at sea by award-winning and best-selling historians Phil Keith and Tom Calvin。
On June 19， 1864， just off the coast of France， one of the most dramatic battles in history took place。 On a clear day with windswept skies， the dreaded Confederate raider Alabama faced the Union warship Kearsarge in an all-or-nothing fight to the finish， the outcome of which would effectively end the threat of the Confederacy on the high seas。
Authors Phil Keith and Tom Clavin introduce some of the crucial but historically overlooked players， including John Winslow， captain of the CSS Alabama and one of the South's greatest heroes。 Listeners will sail aboard the Kearsarge as Winslow embarks for Europe with a set of simple orders from the secretary of the navy: Travel to the uttermost ends of the Earth， if necessary， to find and destroy the Alabama。
Winslow pursued Semmes in a spectacular 14-month chase over international waters， culminating in what would become the climactic sea battle of the Civil War。
