- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5Raising the Hunley gives a detailed account of the making of the Confederate submarine. It includes those men responsible for its design and construction, financing, the history of the crews who served, and the search and eventual discovery and excavation of the sunken vessel. Interesting and well organized.
