Turns out only about the first two chapters of Baltimore Clipper have any relevance to us, most of the book is more from the illicit slave trade to Civil War blockade-running until the lineage finally died out. I'd really like to see more about Henry Spencer's shipbuilding on Eastern Shore, since he was the primary builder of USN schooners, both purpose-built and purchased privateers.
