Soft cover. Condition: Near Fine. No Jacket. Rare, indeed, is the father in American literature. Rare, too, the world of academia that escapes satire. And rarer, yet, the humble treatment of aristocrats. Here in this one splendid book we have treatment of all three done with great tact and intelligence. Alexander Blackburn was b…orn into the aristocracy of wealth on his mother's side and into the aristocracy of intellect on his father's. His father, the celebrated professor of writing at Duke University, had brilliant professor-son relationships with such students as William Styron, Reynolds Price, Fred Chappell, Mac Hyman, and Guy Davenport. Yet it is his own, Alex, who tells with love the story of his father born the son of missionaries on a dirt, though richly carpeted, floor in Iran and who died 73 years later in Duke Hospital, blind and speechless, with Reynolds Price sitting up night after night playing Mozart for him. Between these two dramatic scenes, Alexander Blackburn sits often on the sidelines, yearning for recognition, and finally telling, herewith, his own story and his father's and most importantly the almost universal story, that tentative and painfully shy love that exists between father and son. William Blackburn's class in Literary Composition at Duke University (from the early 1930s to the late 1960s) was charmingly unstructured and wonderfully successful in the number of distinguished writers who emerged from it. In a finely textured book that manages to be a family history and an autobiography, Alexander Blackburn has written a warmly affectionate and insightful life of his father, whose complexities, emotional turmoil, and old-fashioned sense of honor need, as they have gotten, the hand of a novelist. There are several black and white photographs throughout the book. The book pages are clean and free of any markings or highlighting. There is a gift salutation of the previous owner on the inside of the front cover. Debra Long Hampton, Design; Elizabeth Blackburn, Cover Photograph (illustrator). Signed by Author(s).

Includes List of Other Books by A.A. Hoehling; Author Dedication; Introduction and In…dex. Illustrated with black-and-white photographs.

"In early 1864, a handful of Confederate sailors boarded the experimental subramrine Hunley and let it sink to the bottom of the harbor off Charleston, South Carolina, for an extended submergence test. A candle served as their only means of telling when their oxygen supply was low; after twenty-five minutes, its flame would burn no more. The hatch covers could not be lifted because of the water pressure. Four crews, the men knew, had already perished aboard the deadly vessel. Fighting panic, the sailors began turning the manual cranks that drove the propeller - the Hunley's only means of propulsion. It was a harrowing two hours before they reached the surface. Weeks later, the Hunley destroyed the USS Housatonic in history's first submarine attack, though its unfortunate crew died in the moment of glory. Such acts of uncommon bravery are the subject of Damn the Torpedoes! Naval Incidents of the Civil War. Too often, the scope and casualties of the great land battles of the war have overshadowed naval actions, though the fight was pressed with at least the same passion at sea as on land, and with considerably more improvisation. The Civil War at sea was demanding, real, and frightening. It is told here largely in the words of the participants, North and South alike. The stories of the epic battle between the Merrimack and the Monitor, of Davy Farragut's entrance into Mobile Bay, and of the Alabama's disruption of Union shipping before her sinking at the hands of the USS Kearsarge have seldom been told with such concern for the thoughts of the principals themselves. And the stories of the fleets of ferryboats hurriedly turned into men-of-war, of the hapless Mississippi riverboat captain ordered to transport a boatload of prostitutes to a town that had no intention of accepting them, and of the brash Confederate raider who brought the war as far north as Portland, Maine, finally get the wide telling they have so long deserved." - from the inner front jacket flap. Hampton, Debra L. (book design) (illustrator).
