The Sailing Navy, 1775-1854, the first volume in the definitive
five-volume U.S. Navy Warship series, comprehensively details all
aspects of the ships that sailed in the nascent stages of the U.S.
Navy. From its beginnings as battlers of Barbary Coast pirates, to
challenging the awesome might of the Royal Navy in the War of 1812,
to the historic blockade that proved instrumental in winning the
Mexican-American War, the sailing ships foreshadowed the daring and
resolve of the later U.S. Navy. With its all-inclusive lists of
data, The Sailing Navy is the most in-depth resource available on
the ships that shaped the early history of the U.S. Navy. Each
volume in the U.S. Navy Warship series represents the most
meticulous scholarship for its particular era, providing an
authoritative account of every ship in the history of the U. S.
Navy from its first incarnation as the Continental Navy to its
present position as one of the world's most formidable naval
superpowers. Featuring convenient, easy-to-read tabular lists,
every book in the series includes an abundance of illustrations,
some never before published, along with figures for actions fought,
damages sustained, casualties suffered, prizes taken, and ships
sunk, ultimately making the series an indispensable reference tool
for maritime buffs and military historians alike. A further article
about Paul Silverstone and the Navy Warships series can be found
