The USS Constellation is the last all-sail, wooden warship built by the US Navy, and this books provides a compact history of its original construction and all of its refits since the the antebellum period. The ship saw considerable service during its long life and even served as a flagship in WWII. Williams manages to capture a long history in a short volume. Fun and informative.
