KNOX, DUDLEY W. ; ADMIRAL HILARY P. JONES (FOREWORD).,

The Naval Genius of George Washington.

Boston, Massachusetts, Houghton Mifflin, 1932. Limited, # 305 of 550 copies. Hardcover. Good, former college library book with minimal signs: a gift/bookplate inside cover, embossed stamp on TOC and maybe oneor two other pages. Re-bound and rebacked, with former spine and cover titles affixed. Binding very sound, some brown splashes on spine, smudge on cover. Pages lightly darkened with age. Blue paper boards, tan cloth spine. 138pp, 15 b/w illustrations and maps.
¶ From intro: "The genius of General Washington as a naval strategist has too long escaped due recognition…He attained a proficiency worthy of the highest admiration and comparable to that reached by the most eminent naval leaders in history…all the more remarkable from the fact that Washington had little familiarity with seamanship or other minor technique of the naval profession.".

Washington, DC, U. S. Government Printing Office, 1940. First. Hardcover. VG, bumps to all corners, light dent to foot edge of cover. O.w. very little wear. Burgundy cloth boards, gilt spine titling and decoration, no dust jacket, presumably as issued. xiii 718 pp. 13 BW illustrations with tissue protectors and including frontispiece and a number of maps.
¶ A well-kept book from a private collection. From the foreword of Vol. 1: Our exasperating experiences with the Barbary States of northern Africa, continuing for a generation after the United States had won its independence, constitute a chapter of American history from which we may derive permanently valuable lessons. Heretofore a proper understanding and interpretation of those intricate events has been clouded by the dispersion and inaccessibility of documentary source material. It is the aim of the present work to remedy this deficiency; more especially in the naval aspects of the case, but also with due regard for the interwoven political, economic, and diplomatic relationships.
