Excerpt from Three Years on the Blockade: A Naval Experience While I felt awed in the presence of whaling cap tains, and was thrilled with excitement at the narra tion of their perilous adventures in many oceans, I had never yet seen a naval officer, and my only knowl edge of their daring deeds, was such as I had gained in the perusal of the early history of my country.

"This work presents a useful overview of the history, theory, and practice of blockades during the age of fighting sail. It also provides an evaluation of the naval capabilities of the belligerents, a comparison of the blockade of the United States to British blockades of Revolutionary and Napoleonic France, and a discussion of the importance of geography in the theater of conflict. Readers will be fascinated by the story that emerges of the modern world's first superpower at war with a developing nation and of a conflict between civilized states that threatened to devolve into little more than a campaign of terror. To support Dudley's examination of documentary evidence are more than thirty tables, charts, maps, and illustrations."--Jacket.
