English Neutrality: Is The Alabama A British Pirate? (1863)

By Grosvenor Porter Lowrey

Book Overview

""English Neutrality: Is The Alabama A British Pirate?"" is a book written by Grosvenor Porter Lowrey in 1863. The book explores the controversy surrounding the British-built Confederate ship, the CSS Alabama, during the American Civil War. Lowrey argues that the Alabama was not a legitimate vessel of war, but rather a pirate ship that was aided and abetted by the British government. He provides evidence to support his claim, including the ship's construction in a British shipyard, its crew of British subjects, and its use of British ports for repairs and supplies. Lowrey also discusses the legal and moral implications of Britain's neutrality in the conflict between the North and the South. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the American Civil War and the role of British neutrality in the conflict.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
