In the years following the Civil War, ignorance, indifference, and corruption left such a mark on the U.S. Navy that the entire fleet of the 1880s could have been defeated by any single modern warship of the day. It was to take years of often-acrimonious wrangling to re-build the sorry fleet--but in spite of factional disputes and political bumbling, the Navy steadily rose in strength and efficiency until, by 1922, it was second to none in the world. "The Age of the Battleship" tells that tale and, along the way, the story of the Navy's success in two wars -- against Spain, and against Germany. It also tells the tale . . . of the Navy's wars against itself.
