By all accounts, Uriah Phillips Levy, the first Jewish commodore in the US Navy, was both a principled and pugnacious man. This richly detailed historical novel closely follows the actual events of Levy's life. Set against a broad panorama of US history, Commodore Levy describes the American Jewish community from 1790 to 1860, the beginnings of the US Navy and the great nautical traditions of the Age of Sail before its surrender to the age of steam.
