American Light and Medium Frigates 1794-1836
he six first frigates of the newly-born fleet of a young state - America - were commissioned for approximately $ 700,000. Light, fast, these ships allowed America to defend their interests around the world. Among the ships that Mark Lardas, the author of this book, explores in this book, was the frigate Constellation, the first of the US Navy frigates commissioned.
In this book, in addition to exciting stories about the hostilities of the young American fleet, you will learn about the design and development of these military ships, learn about all their advantages and disadvantages, the reasons why the fleet later abandoned these ships and moved on to bigger, heavier 44 guns to the ships.
