Excerpt from A Naval History of the American Revolution, Vol. 1 of 2
IN its various aspects our struggle for independence has from the beginning excited the attention and received the critical study of historical scholars, and is a never-failing source of discussion and spec ulation. From social, commercial, political, diplo matic, and military points of view this interesting field has been worked over most thoroughly. Yet the maritime activities of the war, excepting the episodes, have been subjected to no ve inquiry, although the importance of their bearing upon military movements, foreign re lations, and commercial intercourse is manifest. In the archives of our country and in those of England and France, as well as in private collections, news papers, and elsewhere, will be found a large amount of material hitherto only partially utilized. In the preparation of this work these original sources of information have been explored in the effort to meet in some measure the present need of more adequate treatment.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into a vital yet often overlooked aspect of the American Revolutionary War: the naval struggle. While historians have extensively documented the warââ â¢s political, social, and military dimensions, the maritime activities that shaped its course have received comparatively less attention. The author meticulously explores this crucial facet, examining the emergence of a fledgling American navy, its organization, and the heroic actions of its commanders and crews. The book reveals the challenges the fledgling American navy faced in confronting the overwhelming naval might of Great Britain, a force that had long dominated the seas. Despite the odds, the author showcases how American ingenuity, courage, and determination played a crucial role in securing the nationââ â¢s independence, with individual acts of bravery and strategic naval operations ultimately contributing to the success of the revolution. The bookââ â¢s detailed account of the navy's early struggles and triumphs offers valuable insight into the formation of a national identity and the rise of a formidable American naval presence. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers 9781333271183_0
