Sir. Cunningham Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 Just ordered a new book: Broke of the Shannon: and the War of 1812 by Tim Voelcker
Hyperion74 Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 That looks like a book that I would read. Thanks for posting.
BrutishVulgarian Posted November 4, 2014 Posted November 4, 2014 Broke is such a fine a fellow, you almost forget he is foreigner, poor soul.
Sir. Cunningham Posted November 4, 2014 Author Posted November 4, 2014 The book is excellent! I esp. recommend this one for anyone interested in naval technology at the time! It's full of original source material.
BrutishVulgarian Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 I think Broke might have been the best frigate Captain, I'd take him over Cochrane.
Edward Vernon Posted November 5, 2014 Posted November 5, 2014 Is that like... "If it ain't Broke, don't fix it"? 1
