5.0 out of 5 stars
A solid, interpretive biography that observes Rodgers' role in history,
By Midwest Book Review (Oregon, WI USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Commodore John Rodgers: Paragon of the Early American Navy (New Perspectives on Maritime History and Nautical Archaeology) (Hardcover)
Commodore John Rodgers: Paragon Of The Early American Navy is a solid, interpretive biography that observes Rodgers' role in history during America's Age of Sail in the early 1800s. Based upon extensive manuscript sources, particularly the copious Rodgers family papers, and numerous articles, essays, and monographs on American naval history, Commodore John Rodgers paints a vivid picture of the man who served with great distinction in the Quasi-War with France, the Barbary War, and the War of 1812; dedicated himself to building a strong navy of the absolute highest professional standards; and put his beliefs to the test. Enthusiastically recommended reading, especially for naval history buffs.
