Two North Carolina Watermen: One a talented captain, but enslaved and badly treated. The other a Naval Officer who had his own set of challenges as he served first the United States and then the Confederacy. Nobody could bring these two together in the same book….except Bland Simpson with his book Two Captains from Carolina, next.
