A survey of the history of the United States Navy, especially that of the last quarter of a century, will show that the study has its value, not only for thrilling-stories of heroism and devotion, but for an understanding of the forces shaping national progress. Thus, though it is peculiarly adapted to naval officers, it should have, in time, a real meaning for all students of American foreign relations. This book, in its original form, was written seventeen years ago to meet the needs of the Naval Academy. And now, to meet similar needs, it is continued to the present year. More

The country readily divides itself into four separate parts: the Lowlands, the Central Plain, the Highlands, and the Isles." The author wrote of the photographs: "They show me Scotland as she is, as I know her - rich in scene, in history, in fascinating beauty found nowhere else in the world. That is why I find this book unique." More
