Om Two Years and a Half in the Navy
In this journal, Enock Cobb Wines takes us on a memorable journey in the Mediterranean and Levant aboard the U.S. Frigate Constellation during 1829-1831. The author vividly describes the geography, people and customs of the area, and offers testimonials on the naval academy and the state of European politics. Anyone interested in a first-hand account of a naval cruise during the early 19th century will find this book compelling.
