-- Prisoner of the Civil War --


Imprisoned in a Union Bastille.


This is the Story of
a Union Naval Officer --

 

Told through the letters of William T. Glassell,
To his beloved Miley.

William Glassell is a decorated and commissioned officer in the US Navy from Virginia. While overseas, he is consistently plagued with questions about his loyalty: at the succession of the south, then of Virginia, and finally at the start of the war.

He is steadfast in his commitment to the Navy, until he is requested to sign a separate oath of allegiance, only for officers of southern birth. To this he refuses and writes his resignation. He is then arrested by Lt. Dahlgren and sent to a political prison on an island in Boston Harbor at Christmas time.

He is exchanged after eight months in prison, sent to Charleston in South Carolina, where he proves his worth as he destroys five Union vessels in one sea battle. But the Goliath of the Union, the USS New Ironsides, is brought in to take Charleston.

The new Dahlgren cannon fires an 11 inch cannonball five miles with accuracy and along with the cannon comes it’s maker, Admiral Dahlgren -- Glassell’s former nemesis.

Glassell then takes command of the only weapon that can stop it -- the 50-foot long, steam-powered CSS David submarine. Steaming out, five miles at sea, he approaches the 95-yard long Goliath, the impenetrable USS Ironsides.
