4.0 out of 5 stars
Great review of the 1st Coast Guard Commandant,
By
This review is from: Commodore Ellsworth P. Bertholf: First Commandant of the Coast Guard (Library of Naval Biography) (Hardcover)
Anyone interested in Coast Guard History... or it's new Department should take a day or so to read this book. It excellently reviews the career of the first Commandant from his childhood & midshipman days (that's right, he was in the Navy first), to his days as an arctic hero... the author does a great job telling a compelling story. I suspect some research was difficult, as the Commodore probably did not keep detailed notes, nor publish an autobiography (He died shortly after retiring as Commandant.)Bottom Line: Buy it. Read it. Enjoy it. |
