Annapolis: Puts you on the decks of a fighting frigate as cannonballs send deadly slivers of wood and showers of blood through the air; in the far pacific, where an otherwise impeccable midshipman loses himself to the touch of a woman and an island paradise; in the first chaotic days of the American Civil War, when honorable young men, forced to take sides, gather for a final gook-bye beneath a mulberry tree at Annapolis; in the high-tech war over the sands of Iraq, where navy pilots dodge SAM missiles and one Stafford becomes a prisoner of war and symbol of courage.
This is the saga of two families the Staffords' and the Parrishs', from an age when a single sailing ship rounded the horn and wrought havoc on Britain's whaling fleet to the advent of billion-dollar nuclear-powered submarines. This book echoes with the thought, emotions, and voices of presidents, admirals, and war heroes. An American odyssey, a grand tale of adventure and patriotism, and an enthralling work of historical fiction.
