A Long Line Of Ships: Mare Island's Century Of Naval Activity In California is a comprehensive historical account of the Mare Island Naval Shipyard's century-long naval activity in California. The author, Arnold S. Lott, provides a detailed narrative of the shipyard's establishment in 1854, its role in the Civil War, and its contribution to the Pacific Fleet during World War II. The book also delves into the social and economic impact of the shipyard on the surrounding community, including the employment opportunities it provided and the racial and gender dynamics of the workforce. Lott also explores the technological advancements and innovations that were developed and implemented at Mare Island, such as the construction of submarines and the development of nuclear propulsion systems. Throughout the book, Lott provides a rich visual history of the shipyard, including photographs, maps, and diagrams. The book is a valuable resource for naval historians, military enthusiasts, and anyone interested in the history of California and the United States Navy.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
