The Fight for a Free Sea: A Chronicle of the War of 1812 - The Chronicles of America Series, Volume 17

An old print, illustrating the moment in the action at which the mainmast of the Guerrire, shattered by the terrific fire of the American frigate, fell overside, transforming the former vessel into a floating wreck and terminating the action. The picture represents accurately the surprisingly slight damage done the Constitution: note the broken spanker gaff and the shot holes in her topsails. The Constellation, of which this is a photograph, is somewhat smaller than the Constitution, being rated at 38 guns as against 44 for the latter. In general appearance, however, and particularly in rig, the two types are very similar. Although the Constellation did not herself see action in the War of 1812, she is a good example of the heavily armed American frigate of that dayand the only one of them still to be seen at sea under sail within recent years. At the present time the Constellation lies moored at the pier of the Naval Training Station, Newport, R.I. Photograph by E. Mller, Jr., Inc., New York. ......Buy Now (To Read More)
