Rose O'Neale Greenhow and the Blockade Runners
About the AuthorGeorge Johnson, Jr., emeritus
Professor of
Surgery at the Univeristy of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, grew up
several blocks from where Rose O'Neale Greenhow is buried and
frequently fished the wrecks of the blockade runners around the Cape
Fear River. He was fortunate to run into several "unfound" treasures in
the form of color pictures and maps during his research which make this
book special.

heroine and the war at sea. It tells of a unique woman and the battle
that sealed the fate of the South in the Civil War. Every page is
