SAILING THE GRAVEYARD SEA: The Deathly Voyage of the Somers, the U.S. Navy's Only Mutiny, and the Trial That Gripped the Nation
A riveting account of the only mutiny in the history of the U.S. Navy--a little-known event that cost three innocent young men their lives. Some good did come out of it: public disgust with Commander Mackenzie's training cruise gave birth to Annapolis, the place that within a century, would produce the greatest navy the world has ever known. Photos.
