Book Synopsis John Lenthall: The Life of a Naval Constructor by : Stephen Chapin Kinnaman
Download or read book John Lenthall: The Life of a Naval Constructor written by Stephen Chapin Kinnaman and published by Vernon Press. This book was released on 2022-06-07 with total page 585 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many stirring words have been written about the heroic deeds of the officers and men of the U.S. Navy before, during and after the Civil War. But very little has been published about the naval constructors who built the warships that made their exploits possible. Of all of the Navy’s constructors from this era, none had more impact than John Lenthall (1807-1882). A native of Washington D.C. and the son of ambitious English parents, young Lenthall’s stellar rise through the ranks of naval constructors soon led to his appointment as the chief of the Bureau of Construction, Equipment and Repairs. Now the U.S. government’s highest-ranking naval architect, John Lenthall was in charge of designing and constructing the nation’s warships. The magnificent Merrimack class steam frigates were one of his first achievements. His stance early in the Civil War on ironclads and coolness toward John Ericsson have been consistently misunderstood—Lenthall accepted the Navy’s need for armored warships but objected to a fleet of only brown water-capable monitors. When he retired in 1871, he had been bureau chief for over seventeen years and responsible for the building of nearly all the Navy’s ships during an era of unprecedented technological evolution. 'John Lenthall: The Life of a Naval Constructor' is thoroughly documented with previously untapped primary archival source material from Philadelphia’s Independence Seaport Museum and the Franklin Institute, and the U.S. Naval Academy Museum. 'John Lenthall' is written by a historian and naval architect who can clearly explain the nuances of ship design. The author’s treatment of Lenthall and the legacy of his fellow constructors brings to life a previously untold chronicle of American ingenuity and achievement.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Naval Constructor: A Vade Mecum of Ship Design for Students, Naval Architects, Shipbuilders and Owners, Marine Superintendents, Engineers and Draughtsmen This handbook has been prepared with the object of supplying a ready reference for those engaged in the design, construction, or maintenance of ships, - such a work as should give simply and concisely, information on most of the points usually dealt with in the theory and practice of marine architecture, and in addition much that is new and original. Under the latter heading should be included the chapter on Design and many of the tables of standardized fitting details, etc. The Freeboard tables have been explained and their application simplified by working out examples embracing the various types to which freeboards are assigned, including the modern shelter decker, for which rules have recently been issued. While it would have been possible to enlarge greatly on what the author has attempted, it has been deemed prudent at present to restrict somewhat the scope of the book, although at that, it will be found much more comprehensive in its character than existing works on naval architecture. It has been the authors aim to eliminate all obsolete matter and antiquated data, and to bring the book right in line with present day requirements. How nearly he has come to this ideal will be shown by the reception accorded by the profession. His thanks are especially due to Ernest H. Rigg, A. M. I. N. A., for valuable assistance in the preparation of the chapter on Freeboard, to Jas. A. Thomson, M.I. N.A., for aid in the reading of proofs, and to the publishers for their hearty co-operation.
