Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Reminiscences of the Old Navy: From the Journals and Private Papers of Captain Edward Trenchard, and Rear-Admiral Stephen Decatur Trenchard It is seldom that the "inside history" of our navy has been so interestingly revealed as it is in the journal and private papers of the late Rear-Admiral Stephen Decatur Trenchard, and of his father. Captain Edward Trenchard. The history of the navy, as taken from the official reports of our commanders and other public documents, has been given to the country in various forms, but they, as a rule, touch only on well-known actions orrands of public service with which the general reader already is familiar. There are many acts of heroism, many thrilling episodes, and many romances wrapped up in the private lives of our officers which have not been made public, and are known only to a few of their most intimate messmates.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sea Memories: Or, Personal Experiences in the U. S. Navy in Peace and War After a lapse of more than forty years since I first commenced sea-life, and, with no guide but memory to aid me, the story of my life on shipboard must, of course, be lacking in many particulars; yet, with the incidents firmly fixed in my mind, I can recall the most of them in the order of their occurrence. Although a man of more than sixty years, the events that I have related in my book come as freshly before me as if they had happened but yesterday, many sulphurous with the smoke of war, and others relating to companionships that were pleasant, 'mid scenes of more quiet import. The Mexican war, of which so little is now known, forms the main feature of the work, some of the leading events of which the writer participated in, on sea and shore, and was an interested spectator of others.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Two Years and a Half in the American Navy, Vol. 1 of 2: Comprising a Journal of a Cruise to England, in the Mediterranean, and in the Levant, on Board of the U. S. Frigate Constellation, in the Years 1829, 1830, and 1831 IT shall be my endeavour not to exhaust my read er's patience in the Preface, however heavily I may draw upon it in the work itself. It is so much the fashion now-a - days for writers of travels to apologise for their productions, by stating that they are less the result of volition, than a sort of irresistible inspiration, breathed into their spirits by the genii loci of the spots they have visited, that I should not, probably, be be lieved, if I should say that I joined the' Constellation without any intention of sporting my pen for the edifi cation of the public. As I do not wish to make my first - and probably my last - appearance before the world in the character of an author with an assertion at the outset that would occasion my veracity to be called in question, I shall make no such declaration albeit I might do it in good faith. My object, then, - to dash at once in medias res, ln applying for my situation, was twofold - the acqui sitiou of the languages of the South of Europe, and the sight of those glorious regions where Genius wan toned in her young and vernal hour. Being somewhat fond of scribbling, I inundated my friends with let ters, of which I was foolish enough to retain Copies, and kept, besides, a copious journal of notes and ob servations for my own improvement and diversion.
