Book excerpt: 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.

Captain Sloat, who preceded Stockton in command, had seized Monterey, taken possession of San Francisco Bay and the surrounding country, and garrisoned Sutter's Fort on the Sacramento River. When Stockton arrived all seaports, of which there are few on the California coast, were in control of the United States navy. His operations, therefore, were conducted inland, and his sailors fought far from the ships. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A History of the United States Navy, Vol. 1 of 3: From 1775 to 1901 It would be difficult to exaggerate the value of the services that have been rendered by the United States navy. The Continental cruisers and privateers - the latter corresponding to the militia on land - during the War of the Revolution captured about eight hundred vessels from the enemy, and, making the moderate allowance of fifteen men to each craft, we have a total of twelve thousand prisoners taken on. the high seas by a maritime force which at no time consisted of more than five thousand men. About five hundred of these prisoners were soldiers of some of the best English regiments, and had they been captured on land the incident would have occupied many pages in our histories. It was by means of our maritime forces that the American armies were supplied with the munitions of war during that terrible struggle. In our two years of naval war with France the work was all done by the navy. About eighty vessels, mostly privateers, carrying over three thousand men, were captured from the enemy. Again, the wars with the States of Barbary were brought to a highly honorable termination by the unaided efforts of the navy, the United States securing privileges that had been denied to European powers. The naval War of 1812 did more to humble the pride of Great Britain than any other contest. The Revolution was a struggle for independence on land, but it required a second fight to secure our "inalienable rights" on the high seas.

This book was released on 2017-10-17 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The History of the Navy During the Rebellion, Vol. 1 With England and France, therefore, the most interesting question connected with our affairs has been, whether we could create a truly formidable Navy. Our naval strength was the standard by which they measured their power to attack, and ours to defend. They did not believe it possible for us to pro duce a Navy in a few months which could both seal up our long line of sea-coast and defy their own most formidable ships, and this mistaken judgment was the main inﬂuence in deciding their policy in regard to American affairs. A history of the Navy, then, is a history of that power by which Europe gauges our national importance, and by which our rank among nations is assigned: because, until a true Christian civilization prevails, the nobler attributes of a nation will be overlooked in view of its ability to carry on a great war; and because, if the 'united States should ever wage a great European war, the battles would be mainly upon the seas. While our Army has done a work beyond all praise, and has settled the question of our ability to defend our territory against any force which could be brought here, the Navy has saved us from foreign intervention that could not have been otherwise avoided, while at the same time its labors in putting down the rebellion have been far greater than has been gener ally supposed.
