First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: New. 1st Edition. NEW YORK: Oxford University Press, 1997. First edition. First printing. New/New. A pristine unread copy. With mylar dust jacket wrapper. Smoke free. Ships in well padded box. Roswell Lamson was one of the boldest and most skillful young officers in the Union navy. Second in the class of 1862 at Annapolis (he took his final exam while at sea during the war), he commanded more ships and flotillas than any other officer of his age or rank in the service, climaxed by his captaincy of the navy's fastest ship in 1864, USS Gettysburg. This volumes gathers the wartime letters of this striking naval figure. James M. McPherson, co-editor of the collection with his wife Patricia, writes that few sets of letters equal and none surpass those of Lamson for richness of description, scope of coverage, or keenness of perception and analysis. Indeed, the McPhersons term Lamson's correspondence the best Civil War navy letters we have ever read or expect to read. Immediately takes its place as the best one-volume history of the coming of the American Civil War and the war itself. It is a superb narrative history, elegantly written, according to the Philadelphia Enquirer. 0.0.

Card covers 240pp. A little wear on edges, former owner's name plate on front fep; a very good copy. Roswell Lamson was one of the boldest and most skillful young officers in the Union navy. He commanded more ships and flotillas than any other officer of his age or rank in the service, climaxed by his captaincy of the navy's fastest ship in 1864, USS Gettysburg. This presents his war-time letters. McPherson writes that "few sets of letters equal and none surpass those of Lamson for richness of description, scope of coverage, or keenness ofperception and analysis." Throughout the war, Lamson always seemed to be where the action was on the South Atlantic coast, and these letters describe with striking immediacy the part he played in these events. While serving on the USS Wabash he directed the big deck guns that did the most damage to enemy forts at Hatteras Inlet and Port Royal, two major naval victories. He was the officer who took command of the CSS Planter in May 1862, when slaves led by Robert Smalls ran her past Confederate fortifications in Charleston harbor and delivered her to the Union fleet. He commanded a gunboat fleet on the Nansemond River that helped stop James Longstreet's advance on Norfolk. In a daring attempt to blow up Fort Fisher, the huge earthwork fortress that guarded the entrance into the Cape Fear river,he towed the USS Louisiana (packed with more than two hundred tons of gunpowder) directly under the guns of the fort, sneaking into the shallows behind a rebel blockade runner. And a few weeks later, he led a contingent of seventy men from the Gettysburg as part of the15 January 1865 assault on the sea-face parapets of Fort Fisher, where he himself was wounded. The letters also capture the spirited personality of Lamson himself, resolved to "stand by the Union as long as there is a plank afloat.".
