Synopsis
The primary Union strategy during the American Civil War was a massive naval blockade of the entire Southern coastline of the Confederacy, and it was in the effort to counter this blockade that the Confederates developed their first submarines and torpedo boats. This book traces the development of these new technologies, including the CSS 'Little David' and 'Hunley' - respectively the first torpedo boat and submarine to sink an enemy warship. The wreck of the 'Hunley' was raised in 2000, and this is the first book ever to integrate details of its recovery with an account of Confederate submarines in action.

- -***s (13)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseItem exactly as described at a reasonable price. Packaging was in factory shrink wrap which is a plus and overpacked very well. Shipping was quick and without issue. I needed these to finish off the kit I bought at a show. Thanks for being an upstanding and honest seller!Kirin - Aerosan Crew (2) Resin Figures - 1/35 scale - Kit #25015 (#276673738396)
- _***s (182)- Feedback left by buyer.Past yearVerified purchaseThis item was exactly as described. The box was in great condition and the parts inside were still sealed with plastic wrap. In fact, it looked almost absolutely new. After a quick inspection of the plastic parts, it appeared to be crisp in detail, as I had been unfamiliar with HobbyBoss. The price was very reasonable and it was packed very carefully, so no damage occurred during shipment. It was shipped fast and arrived very quickly. I would not hesitate to buy from this seller again.TRISTAR - German Africa Corps - 1/35 - #35011 (#276800859779)
- a***r (868)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseAwesome customer service. This positive feedback is for a refund on shipping cost. I placed 2 separate orders from 2 model kits 1 day apart. Not realizing that both were being sold by the same seller. DONS Models and Hobbies packaged both orders shipping as one order. And refunded $11.66. Thank you so much for being so honorable and honest.
