Excerpt from Old Salamander: The Life and Naval Career of Admiral David Glascoe Farragut

The material for the sketch of the Admiral's early history are not so full as might be desired. His life on the sea necessarily made it quite impossible to gather many incidents of interest in connection with his subsequent career, which would have be come traditionary in a community where the years of boyhood and youth were passed.

The Journal of Commodore David Porter, of the Essex, Abbott's History of the Rebellion.
