Upon his release, he joined the Continental Navy and sailed as a midshipman under Admiral John Paul Jones during his most famous battles. Fanning later obtained his own command, sailing from French ports to prey upon British warships. This new edition of Fanning's memoir-first published in 1806-provides a vivid account of wartime peril and hardship at sea, and a first-hand character study of Jones as an apparent tyrant and narcissist. Vocabulary, spelling and narrative style have changed in the more than two centuries since Fanning's chronicle, and some details clash with historical and geographical data. The editor has updated and annotated the text for modern readers."-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Jones, John Paul, $d 1747-1792. 600 17 $a Jones, John Paul, $d 1747-1792. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00014040 611 27 $a American Revolution (1775-1783) $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01351668 651 0 $a United States $x History $y Revolution, 1775-1783 $v Personal narratives. 651 0 $a United States $x Naval operations. $y Revolution, 1775-1783 $x Naval operations. 650 0 $a Privateering $z United States $x History $y 18th century. 650 7 $a Military operations, Naval. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01710244 650 7 $a Privateering. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01077643 651 7 $a United States. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01204155 648 7 $a 1700-1799 $2 fast 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 655 7 $a Personal narratives. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01423843 655 7 $a Autobiographies. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Personal narratives. $2 lcgft 700 1 $a Norton, Louis A., $e editor. 941 $a 1 952 $l USUX851 $d 20200402013613.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=601A7BE874A711EA8EBE956E97128E48 994 $a 92 $b IWAInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
