Ten years later every navy was building 44-gun frigates and today it is viewed as the symbol of the Napoleonic-era cruiser. This remarkable transformation resulted from the performance of three ships - the Constitution, United States, and President - 44-gun frigates built for the United States Navy between 1794 and 1799. Their victories in the naval War of 1812, as well as their performance against the Barbary Pirates, caught the imagination of the world - and spurred all navies into re-examining the class.Language: EnglishCountry/Region of Manufacture: GBItem Height: 248mmItem Length: 184mmItem Width: 5mmItem Weight: 174gAuthor: Mark LardasIllustrator: Tony BryanContributor: Tony Bryan (Illustrated by)Genre: Law & PoliticsTopic: History, Military HistoryBook Series: New VanguardRelease Year: 2003 Missing Information?Please contact us if any details are missing and where possible we will add the information to our listing.
