*THE  SAILOR BOY,
or; Jack Somers in the Navy,
A Story of the Great Rebellion.
by Oliver Optic.
Another great Optic sea-book, this time set at the time of the Civil War, or "the rebellion" as it was always known at this time. Jack joins the navy and fights on the Union Side against the Confederacy. An excellent introduction to a not-too-well-known part of the history of this great conflict.
Available with character customization; Jack Somers' name, replaced with that of your son/grandson/nephew, etc.
