Buying Those Civil War Navy Books

On November 20th, I was on the outskirts of Columbus, Ohio, on my annual Thanksgiving trip to North Carolina.  Driving around the motel, I found one of my favorite stores anywhere, Half Price Books.  I love the place even though it always cost me big bucks to go into one of them.

I was beginning to think I might just be in luck and get out without buying anything when I found two Navy books, one by blockade-runner William Watson relating his experiences and the other about the CSS Virginia.
