Yes! Shame on me for not looking at it more closely. I thought it was based on a real person! Thanks a lot for clearing that up, Ambre!

My pleasure! And don't beat yourself up—I know at least three people, myself included, who bought it assuming the same. :)

OK, good -- now I don't feel so bad! :)

Thank you for providing this list. I have a copy of a book titled Caleb Pettengill, U.S.N., by George Fielding Eliot. It is published by Messner, and the "look" is very similar to books in this series. What determines if a book is part of this series? Thanks a lot!

I am familiar with the title—it is historical fiction set during the Civil War, not based on a real person. This series is biographical only. Hope that helps!
