Title: From the Civil War years to death of D.G. Farragut
Review: After over 50 years as a Naval Officer and past 60 years of age, most men would have settled for a rocking chair. David Glasgow Farrigut, however, was to be found in the heat of battle, lashed high in the rigging of his flagship, barking commands through a megaphone, bullets flying around him, while his junior officers begged him to come down before he was shot to pieces! Farragut reached the level of a truly epic hero. Congress wanted no titles of nobility and had no rank above Captain in the Pre-Civil War U.S. Navy. Farragut's performance was so fantastic that Congress created the rank of Vice Admiral and then Admiral to award to a man who is argued in other text "THE DAY THE WAR WAS LOST" to have done more to win the Civil War than any other person. With the daring taking of New Orleans, the Southern armies soon found itself without shoes, or tools or gunpowder. This book tells how it was done in graphic tales of action and stunning detail.
