Book excerpt: It's 1771 and I've just gotten a secret message from Father who - all of New Bedford says-went down with his ship in 1769, when I was eleven. I know I promised my old friend Wayland not to put to sea without Mother's permission, but what's more important - keeping a promise or finding Father? If you want to come with me, help me find a ship bound for the South Atlantic, and we'll search together for a legendary island, and Father.But watch out for a smelly, slim, oily-looking sailor with a tattoo of a viper coiled around his arm.

Book Synopsis Russian Warships in the Age of Sail 1696-1860 by : Eduard Sozaev
Download or read book Russian Warships in the Age of Sail 1696-1860 written by Eduard Sozaev and published by Seaforth Publishing. This book was released on 2010-06-23 with total page 457 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter the Great created a navy from nothing, but it challenged and soon surpassed Sweden as the Baltic naval power, while in the Black Sea it became an essential tool in driving back the Ottoman Turks from the heartland of Europe. In battle it was surprisingly successful, and at times in the eighteenth century was the third largest navy in the world - yet its history, and especially its ships, are virtually unrecorded in the West.??This major new reference work handsomely fills this gap, with a complete and comprehensive list of the fleet, with technical detail and career highlights for every ship, down to small craft. However, because the subject is so little recorded in English, the book also provides substantial background material on the organisation and administration of the navy, its weapons, personnel and shipbuilding facilities, as well as an outline of RussiaÛªs naval campaigns down to the clash with Britain and France known as the Crimean War.??Illustrated with plans, paintings and prints rarely seen outside Russia, it is authoritative, reliable and comprehensive, the culmination of a long collaboration between a Russian naval historian and an American ship enthusiast.??EDUARD SOZAEV is an established Russian naval historian with a number of books to his credit. JOHN TREDREA, his translator, editor and long-term collaborator, is an American ship enthusiast with a life-long interest in the Russian navy.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Most of us are familiar with the Caesar of Shakespeare and Shaw. We know him primarily as the manipulative warlord and statesman.

Assigned to the cutter Haida before the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, he spent his first months on peacetime duty in the Bering Sea. With the advent of the war, however, the cutter embarked on convoy duty in the Gulf of Alaska and along the Aleutians.

Book Synopsis Surface and Destroy by : Michael Sturma
Download or read book Surface and Destroy written by Michael Sturma and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2011-03-25 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: World War II submariners rarely experienced anything as exhilarating or horrifying as the surface gun attack. Between the ocean floor and the rolling whitecaps above, submarines patrolled a dark abyss in a fusion of silence, shadows, and steel, firing around eleven thousand torpedoes, sinking Japanese men-of-war and more than one thousand merchant ships. But the anonymity and simplicity of the stealthy torpedo attack hid the savagery of warfare—a stark difference from the brutality of the surface gun maneuver. As the submarine shot through the surface of the water, confined sailors scrambled through the hatches armed with large-caliber guns and met the enemy face-to-face. Surface and Destroy: The Submarine Gun War in the Pacific reveals the nature of submarine warfare in the Pacific Ocean during World War II and investigates the challenges of facing the enemy on the surface. The surface battle amplified the realities of war, bringing submariners into close contact with survivors and potential prisoners of war. As Japan's larger ships disappeared from the Pacific theater, American submarines turned their attention to smaller craft such as patrol boats, schooners, sampans, and junks. Some officers refused to attack enemy vessels of questionable value, while others attacked reluctantly and tried to minimize casualties. Michael Sturma focuses on the submariners' reactions and attitudes toward their victims, exploring the sailors' personal standards of morality and their ability to wage total war. Surface and Destroy is a thorough analysis of the submariner experience and the effects of surface attacks on the war in the Pacific, offering a compelling study of the battles that became "intolerably personal."
