4.9/5 (13694 ratings)

Description:The great struggle of North and South during the Civil War brought forth many good and brave men who fought on both sides.One of these men was Stephen Mallory, the Secretary of the Navy of the Confederate States, who almost single-handedly welded the Confederate Navy into a hard-hitting fighting machine.Mallory spent his early years in Key West, Florida. As a young man, he became interested in law, and later, politics. He was elected as one of the two Senators from Florida, and held the added position of Chairman of the Naval Affairs Committee of the Senate.When the South seceded from the Union, Mallory, as a Catholic, searched his conscience over what he should do. He chose to remain with the South and President Davis appointed him Secretary of the Navy. Throughout the war, Mallory held his own against the North, and introduced into naval strategy the first iron-clad vessel, as well as the first practical submarines and torpedoes.After the war, Mallory stood as an impressive figure of courage and determination in building up his wrecked home with his own hands and in re-establishing his once-flourishing career.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
