I've read many of the big names of naval fiction: Kent, Forester, O'Brien. I've never gotten around to their predecessor Marryat, who Twain enjoyed reading. Some of the funniest books on the US Navy were written by Daniel Gallery, the WWII naval Captain who captured a U-Boat at sea (it's now a tourist attraction in Chicago). Funny, funny books.Bobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11402651457453813639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30969459.post-3531483271840138112007-11-01T20:47:00.000-04:002007-11-01T20:47:00.000-04:00You know the last case of a documented pirate on t...You know the last case of a documented pirate on the continential United States was in Pittsburgh, Pa.

Good stuff full of derring do and drawn cutlasses.
