Book Description
This collection of interpretive, biographical essays on the admirals of the new steel navy continues the story of the development of the American naval begun so successfully in Command Under Sail and Captains of the Old Steam Navy. During the period of 1880 to 1930, the U.S. Navy underwent a significant transformation as it adapted to new technologies and grew to meet the responsibilities thrust upon it by America’s new role as a world power. This book offers readers an entertaining yet informative history that allows amateur and professionals alike to better appreciate the U.S. Navy’s dramatic period of development and adjustment.

Book Description
Victory Without Peace concentrates on the U.S. Navy in European and Near Eastern waters during the post-World War I era. As participants in the Versailles peace negotiations, the Navy was charged with executing the naval terms of the Armistice as well as preserving stability and peace. U.S. warships were deploying into the Near East, Baltic, Adriatic, and Northern Europe, while simultaneously withdrawing its demobilized forces from European waters. This signifies the first time the U.S. Navy contributed to peacetime efforts, setting a precedent continues today. Conversely, Congressional appropriations handicapped this deployment by demobilization, general naval policy and postwar personnel, and operating funds reductions. Though reluctant to allocate postwar assets into seemingly unimportant European and Near Eastern waters, the Navy was pressured by the State Department and the American Relief Administration's leader, Herbert Hoover, to deploy necessary forces. Most of these were withdrawn by 1924 and the European Station assumed the traditional policy of showing the flag.
