The History of Virginia’s Navy of the Revolution

Description

The first part of this work recounts the exploits of the largest of all the State navies, while the roster of officers and men, in the second half of the book, is a compilation deriving from a variety of source records. Alphabetically arranged, the entries include, wherever possible, rank or status of officers and men, names of vessels served upon, length of service, native county, and, in certain cases, information about heirs and descendants.
