First Edition, First Printing (1956 title and copyright pages; no subsequent printings indicated; LCCN 56-7772 present; original $5.00 price intact on jacket flap; no book club indicators). Hardcover in original blue cloth with gilt spine lettering, in original dust jacket. Signed first edition, inscribed by the author on the front flyleaf and dated August 17, 1956, the year of publication. This work explores the naval dimension of the Civil War through biographical studies of key Union figures including Farragut, Porter, Dahlgren, and Foote, emphasizing the strategic importance of blockade and sea power in securing Union victory. Macartney blends narrative history with individual profiles, helping correct the relative neglect of naval operations in Civil War historiography. Book condition: Very Good.

Interior is generally clean with light toning to endpapers with penciled note; no markings elsewhere. Dust jacket condition: Good. Not clipped, original price intact. Jacket shows edge wear with chipping at spine ends and corners, some creasing along folds, and moderate rubbing/soiling to the rear panel; presents well in a protective sleeve. Clarence Edward Macartney (1879-1957) was a prominent Presbyterian minister, orator, and prolific author whose historical writings - particularly on Abraham Lincoln and the Civil War - were widely read in the mid-20th century, combining scholarly interest with accessible narrative style.
