The second volume of this authoritative biography of America's first admiral examines the last ten years of David Glasgow Farragut's life, which included the period of the Civil War. It discusses the gross inefficiency and waste in the conduct of war, in the North as well as the South, of jealous ambition and malicious criticism, of lukewarm support of the government, lack of cooperation between the Army and Navy, and the inroads upon morale made by war weariness and disease.
