Covering more than two centuries of naval history, this chronology
highlights the individuals and events that shaped one of the
world's greatest fighting forces—the United States Navy. The
United States Navy: A Chronology, 1775 to the Present showcases the
dramatic role of the nation's warships throughout America's long
history and documents the Navy's vital contributions to
establishing the United States as a superpower. Beginning with the
American Revolutionary War, this comprehensive work details major
and minor events in the history of the U.S. Navy through Operation
Iraqi Freedom and Operation Enduring Freedom in Afghanistan. The
topics included in this book describe not only battles at sea, but
also important political and administrative changes, as well as
notable events in the careers of admirals and other naval leaders.
Significant battles in all major wars are covered, along with
actions in smaller conflicts. This chronology also includes the
founding of noted schools of instruction; the introduction of new
classes of warships and aircraft; and significant naval texts, such
as Alfred Thayer Mahan's seminal The Influence of Naval Power upon
History.
