The American Sailing Navy by Howard Chapelle 1949 Vintage Book

Description

The American Sailing Navy chronicles the stories, ships, and sailors of the U.S. Navy from its earliest beginnings when the wind was the only source of energy to power these ships. Much of our history and language has its roots in these wooden ships as we expanded America's influence from the original 13 colonies.

The American Sailing Navy is an excellent addition to your vintage Navy collection or home library.
