This Is A New Release Of The Original 1909 Edition.
1897. Illustrated by R.F. Zogbaum and Carlton T. Chapman. From the
Preface: In present this volume of Tales of 1812 it is not the
intention of the author to give detailed accounts of actions at sea
or to present biographical sketches of well-known heroes; he wishes
but to tell something of the ships that fought the battles, whose
names are inseparably connected with a glorious past, and to relate
incidents connected with the Yankee sailors who composed their
crews-A Yankee Ship and a Yankee Crew-thus runs the old song; it is
to exploit both in a measure that is the intention of this book.
Contents: Allen, of the Chesapeake; Reuben James, Able Seaman; The
Men behind the Times; The Coward; The Scapegoat; The Loss of the
Vixen; In the Harbor of Fayal; The Escape of Symington; The
Narragansett; Fighting Stewart; Two Duels; Dartmoor; The Rival
Life-Savers; and Random Adventures.
