6 Frigates, great book.

[Tony P]

This is a great book on how the early US Govn't decided upon 6 Frigates to defend this country, anyone interested in Naval Hostory will enjoy it as I did. http://ianwtoll.com/six-frigates
Also a friend gave me The Lore of Ships, an older book that from what I see is still highly recommended to ship fans. For neophytes like myself it explains alot about sailing ships.
Just though I would pass these along to our board members here.
