Description
""The Old Navy And The New"" is a historical book written by Daniel Ammen and published in 1891. The book provides an in-depth analysis of the development of the United States Navy from the early days of its establishment to the end of the Civil War. The author, who was a retired Rear Admiral of the Navy, draws upon his extensive experience and knowledge of naval history to provide a comprehensive account of the Navy's evolution.The book is divided into three parts. The first part covers the early years of the Navy, including its establishment during the Revolutionary War and its role in the War of 1812. The second part focuses on the Navy's growth and development during the mid-19th century, including its involvement in the Mexican-American War and the Civil War. The third and final part of the book examines the modernization of the Navy in the post-Civil War era.In addition to his own insights, Ammen also includes a series of personal letters from General Ulysses S. Grant, who served as the 18th President of the United States and was a key figure in the Union's victory in the Civil War. These letters provide a unique perspective on the Navy's role in the war and shed light on Grant's own views on naval strategy.Overall, ""The Old Navy And The New"" is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history of the United States Navy. The book provides a detailed and engaging account of the Navy's evolution over time, and the inclusion of personal letters from General Grant adds an extra layer of depth and insight to the narrative.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
