Letters from Annapolis: Midshipmen Write Home, 1848-1969

This collection of letters penned by 13 midshipmen attending the U.S. Naval Academy begins shortly after the founding of the academy in 1845 and continues into the Vietnam Era. Academy English professor Drew selected the letters from hundreds that found their way back to the academy archives. She introduces the letter-writers with brief biographies and photographs and places their letters in the larger context of history.
