Summary: A Splendid Bio of a Confederate Naval Officer
Comment: "Drawing upon obscure newspaper interviews and other rich source material, Delaney has produced a splendid bio of a Confederate naval officer. Kell was the driving force behind much of the success that raphael Semmes enjoyed with his raider Alabama. Delany fully depicts Kell's exciting life, giving thorough attention not only to the war years, but also the pre- and postwar years as well." This review from America's Civil War magazine (March 2003) pretty much describes the book. It is a good, concise read for anyone interested in the naval aspects of the American Civil War, especially the role of the Confederate commerce raider Alabama.
