A fun bit of historical fiction

The Blockade Runners is set during the American Civil War. It's a fun little novella by Jules Verne that deals with a blockade runner heading to Charleston, South Carolina.
The captain, a member of an English merchant family, take on a sailor (a very unusual character - get this to watch him) at the last minute. He also has to take on the sailor's nephew. This changes his life in a manner he can't possibly imagine.
It's a free book for the Kindle, so give it a shot. It's a fun, quick read. First time I read a bit of Civil War fiction like this.
Here's a hint - Romance on the High Seas!

outruns boredom

like the ship at the heart of the story - this Verne adventure moves too fast for boredom to catch up - despite the very conventional plot
Jules Verne set it during the american civil war - the protagonist is a young british merchant marine captain intent on the profit to be gained by running the shipping blockade around Charleston established by the north - but then he also gains a new perspective when he becomes involved with the daughter of an American abolitionist and her clever man servant
it's a short read cuz it's all plot - i prefer that to too much dragging detail - which accompanied most of Verne's more famous works
