Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book brings together contemporary accounts of the exploits of John Paul Jones, a naval adventurer who fought for the American cause during the Revolutionary War. The author draws on original sources, primarily English newspapers from 1778-1780, to reconstruct Jonesââ â¢s daring campaigns in British waters. Readers will learn about his raids on Whitehaven, his capture of the British warship the Drake, and his near-capture of the Serapis. The book provides a unique perspective on this iconic figure, revealing the fear and fascination he inspired in the British public. It also delves into the complex and sometimes contradictory nature of Jonesââ â¢s reputation, showcasing how his actions were simultaneously celebrated as acts of daring and condemned as acts of piracy. The authorââ â¢s approach sheds light on the complexities of naval warfare during the Revolutionary War, showing how individual exploits, public perceptions, and national narratives intertwined. This book offers an unprecedented glimpse into the life and legacy of a pivotal figure in American history, providing a fresh understanding of the battles fought both on the sea and in the minds of the public. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9781331360100_0
