Raphael Semmes and the Alabama
by Spencer C. Tucker
Raphael Semmes led the Confederate destroyer Alabama on an incredible 75,000-mile odyssey in which it sank or captured sixty Union ships, including the Hatteras off Galveston. This chronicle concludes with a battle in Cherbourg harbor, in which the Alabama sank and sailors not captured were rescued by the crew of an English yacht.
