Most of us know of French novelist, poet, and playwright Jules Verne's Roman de la Science (Novels of Science), Some of these were written during the Civil War. Five Weeks in a Balloon (1863), Journey to the Center of the Earth (1864), and From the Earth to the Moon (1865). Fewer forum members know of the 1865 novella Les Forceurs de blocus (The Blockade Runner). The reason for this is the novella was not published in English until 1874. Still Verne's took time out of the Novels of Science to write an adventure novella about the running of the Union blockade.
Forum members who are fans of Jules Verne might want to read this novella.
