The article focuses on the book "A History of the United States Navy from 1775 to 1893," by Edgar Stanton Maclay. This work supplies the need long existing for a consecutive history of the navy from the beginning of the war of the Revolution to the close of the war of the Rebellion. Fenimore Cooper's History not only has been for a long time out of print, but has become both meagre and unsatisfactory. Maclay has had the advantage, which he has partly used, of the revival in American historical research, and he has had opportunities afforded him of personal investigation in the library of the British Museum and also in the archives of the French Ministry of Marine in Paris.
