Hardcover. Condizione: Good. Condizione sovraccoperta: Very Good. Donald L. Canney%u2019s study is the first book-length history of the U.S. Navy%u2019s Africa Squadron. Established in 1842 to enforce the ban on importing slaves to the United States, in twenty years%u2019 time the squadron proved ineffective. To officers and enl…isted men alike, duty in the squadron was unpopular. The equatorial climate, departmental neglect, and judicial indifference, which allowed slavers back at sea, all contributed to the sailors%u2019 frustration. Later, the most damaging allegation was that the squadron had failed at its mission. Canney investigates how this unit earned a poor reputation and whether it is deserved. Though U.S. warships seized slave vessels as early as 1800, four decades passed before the Navy established a permanent squadron off the western coast of Africa to interdict U.S.-flag vessels participating in this trade. Canney traces the Navy%u2019s role in interdicting the slave trade, Great Britain%u2019s pressure on the U.S. government to curb slave traffic, the creation of the squadron, and how individual politicians, department secretaries, captains, and squadron commanders interpreted the laws and orders from higher authorities, changing squadron operations. While famous ships and captains served on this station, none won distinction in the Africa Squadron. In the final analysis, the squadron was unsuccessful, even though it was the Navy%u2019s only permanent squadron with a specific, congressionally mandated mission: to maintain a quasi-blockade on a foreign shore. While Canney exonerates southern-born naval captains, who approached their work as diligently as their counterparts from the north, he demonstrates how the secretaries of the Navy%u2014pro-slavery southern politicians%u2014neglected the squadron. Mylar protector included. Please note the image in this listing is a stock photo and may not match the covers of the actual item. Book.

This is the first book-length study devoted to the vessels of the Confederate Navy, including all types used during the conflict: ironclads (both domestic and foreign-built), commerce raiders, blockade runners, riverine and ocean-going gunboats, torpedo and submersible vessels, and floating… batteries. The book emphasizes the development, construction, and design of these vessels using, where available, original plans, photographs, and contemporary descriptions.

Over 100 vessels are detailed, including more than 30 ironclads, both American and foreign built. Over 150 illustrations are included, many of which have not previously been published. Also included is a section on steam engine technology of the era. AUTHOR: Donald L. Canney is an historian and author of eight books. He has specialized in the history of the U.S. Navy in the transitional period from sail to steam power and wood to steel construction. He has also produced books on the Navy's pre-Civil War anti-slave trade squadron, as well as on the U.S. Coast Guard's role in Hurricane Katrina. Don is from Connecticut, obtained a B.A. degree from Georgia Southern University, and taught high school from 1974 to 1984. He worked for the United States Coast Guard as registrar for the service's national artifact program from 1991 to his retirement in 2006. He continues to write and research. 152 images An illustrated overview of the steam vessels deployed by the Confederate Navy during the American Civil War.

Mild shelfwear to binding, with faint scattered rubbing and gentle rubbing to extremities. Binding is firm, tight, and so…und. Pages are clean and unmarked. A very presentable 2001 hardcover edition of James Phinney Baxter III's fully researched history of the rise of ironclad warships, introduced by historian Donald Canney. ABOUT THIS BOOK: James Phinney Baxter's landmark study, originally published in 1933, was the first complete, fully researched history of the ascendance of the ironclads. Some of the more notable ships highlighted in this text are the USS Princeton, USS Monitor, USS Merrimack, the HMS Warrior, HMS Achilles and the CSS Virginia. Using U.S. and British sources, the author broke new ground by relating the entire development of these unique ships, including revolutions in naval ordnance, propulsion technology, and ship construction. Despite the passage of nearly seventy years, this volume remains the standard text on the subject. Commenting that Baxter's work has stood the test of time, historian Donald Canney introduces the book by pointing out that no serious study on ironclads can proceed without Baxter as an authoritative underpinning.
