“Macomber skillfully describes tactical strategizing while providing the history of Florida's Civil War sea battles.” —Publishers Weekly“At last! Finally we have an American character the equivalent of Hornblower or Aubry, a sailor who can do the evolutions and the special missions, who makes things happen and is human besides . . . a rollicking sea adventure. Not to be missed.” —John Prados, author of Combined Fleet Decoded “At the Edge of Honor is a well-written, page-turning tale . . . and would appeal to anyone interested in the naval aspect of the Civil War, or of Florida during the period.” —Civil War News Magazine“Throughout the novel, the author draws stunning images of the land and sea along the tropical coast of Florida, which is a haunting contrast to the unfolding events.” —The Historical Novel Review“Here is a fiction novel of the Civil War era that introduces a character who will someday rival Horatio Hornblower. Well written by a man who obviously knows what a boat is for, and how to sail her.” —Latitudes and Attitudes Magazine“It's a wonderful first novel from an author who may be one of the most promising of the next generation of Civil War fiction writers.” —Civil War Interactive Magazine Views: 141
