Excerpt from The New Navy of the United StatesTo the young men of to-day, and particularly to those beginning a career in the navy, there should be a stimulus for the imagination in the history which these photographs present. There is a deeper message - and one which we strive to communicate - for those of us who have seen the electric ammunition hoist developed from the powder monkey, and the automobile tor pedo substituted for the cutlass as the last resort in hand to hand engagements.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
