Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Story of Our Navy From Colonial Days to the Present Time, Vol. 1 This volume is a history, told in popular, narrative form, of the United States Navy, from its beginning to May 1, 1916. Within its compass is not space for all the events, or even for the mention of all the figures in America´s defence of her honors upon the seas. Rather does it aim to give a running narrative of the course of the development of the United States Navy, from its earliest beginnings to the present time, and to tell the story of the picturesque features of its early struggles and its later triumphs. The author desires to express his thanks to the Hon. Theodore Sutro for permission to use the copyrighted reproductions of certain paintings by the distinguished marine artist, Edward Moran. The fine examples represented in this book are chosen from thirteen paintings to typify thirteen chapters in the History of America on the Sea. Nothing is better adapted to educate and stimulate American interests upon the ocean than a careful study of the reproductions of these remarkable paintings.
