The Spanish-American War at Sea: Naval Action in the Atlantic by A.B. Feuer, James C. Bradford
Requirements: .PDF reader, 9.0 MB
Overview: By piecing together diaries, letters, scrapbooks, and rare privately printed memoirs, the author has created a story which tells how America’s ragtag navy–composed mainly of converted yachts, steamers and tugboats–was able to fight and win against the more powerful Spanish gunboats. The naval battles fought in places like Santiago, Cardenas, Cienfuegos, Manzanillo, Port Nipe, Guantanamo, San Juan, Guanica, and Ponce come alive in this book. The stories of the brave little ships that fought these battles–with names like the Gloucester and the Yosemite–at times against overwhelming odds, demonstrates the excellent training of the men who manned their guns under leadership of daring officers. This book fills in many of the missing pieces in the history of the Spanish-American War.
