Paperback / softback. Condition: New. New copy - Usually dispatched within 4 working days. Naval historian George E.

Octavo, blue cloth (hardcover), gilt letters, ix, 204 pp. Fine (As New) in a Fine (As New) dust jacket. From dust jacket: Although a seminal event in early U.S. naval history, the ill-fated Penobscot Expedition of 1779 remains one of the least studied aspects of the American Revolution -- and one of the most controversial. As part of the largest fleet ever assembled by the fledgling American navy, the vessels comprising the expedition were expected to swiftly defeat the British at Fort George on Maine's Penobscot Bay. But the armada lost some forty ships during the battle, suffering a defeat the magnitude of which would not be seen again until Pearl Harbor. Blame for the debacle was placed on Commo. Dudley Saltonstall, who was accused of cowardice and court-martialed. In this groundbreaking book -- the most detailed chronicle to date of the expedition -- George E. Buker provides a compelling defense of Saltonstall. Bypassing historical speculation, he analyzes concrete factors that might well have caused the American defeat, namely the limitations of square-rigged ships in restricted waters, the geographic setting, and the British defense alignment. Thorough in his research and convincing in his arguments, Buker presents stunning evidence that the Massachusetts Committee of Inquiry and the General Court conspired against Saltonstall and interfered with the commodore's court-martial proceedings to ensure a finding that would allow the state to assess Congress for part of the expenses. In 1793 Massachusetts did, in fact, receive $1.2 million from the federal government. Buker's conclusions, which solve a mystery that has puzzled generations of historians, are certain to foster a reassessment of Saltonstall and his actions.

Book First Edition
Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. Dust Jacket Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Naval Institute Press, MD. A study of the American expedition in July-August 1779, to reclaim the Penobscot Bay (in present day Maine). The Americans were able to put together a fleet of over 40 ships. However, due to poor leadership and coordination the American fleet was crushed. Buker also builds a case for the defense of the US Commander, Dudley Saltonstall. He highlights the square rigging of the American ships did not lend itself to fighting within closed waters. Very good copy of the stated first printing in a very good dust jacket. 204 pages.
