[Roger Campbell · Rating 5 out of 5]

What if the Confederate Navy decided to pay a visit to a northern city? Stone Fish is the second in the Stone Fleet series. While Capt Zane is not in this book he developed the plans to take the war to the North on their own turf. Trained by the 21st century Navy Seal Willie leads the crew of the CHAMELEON on a raid that shows what the CSN could have done if they had put 2 and 2 together. All weapons in the books are ones the CSN was capable of making in 1863 just never thought about. While written for Southerners, Northerners will enjoy reading about life on a wooden ship by iron men. The author served on the last active wooden ship in the navy.

If you enjoy alternative history, this book is for you. From the start a 21st century warrior, a navy seal, finds himself back in Charleston during the War Between the States. Being a loyal son of the south he joins in the war effort around Charleston Harbor by up grading the Confederate navy. This is a good story from start to finish and I recommend it to people who like history, reenacting, and a good yarn.
