Summary: Tales from a salty old dog...
Comment: "A Sailor's Log: Recollections of Forty Years of Naval Life", is an excellent book that chronicles the life of Rear Admiral Robley Evans, known in his time as "Fighting Bob". The book fully covers a long past era of the United States Navy, reaching from the Civil War to the very early 1900's. The description of the way in which early Naval officers were selected and trained is fascinating, and the comparisons that can be drawn between Admiral Evans's detailed life in the Navy and today's contemporary fleet give one much to think on. "A Sailor's Log" is a stimulating, nostalgic, and thought-provoking book, running the gamut from high seas adventure to the placement of the first African-American in the Naval Academy.
