Originally published in 1972, Christopher McKee�s biography of Edward Preble remains the most authoritative source on this influential early shaper of the U.S. naval tradition. McKee documents Preble�s rise from obscurity to become Thomas Jefferson�s chief administrator. He chronicles the officer�s relationship with Jefferson and outlines the president�s policies and strategies during the Barbary Wars. McKee also brings to light the Tripolitan activities and attitudes that confronted Preble as he sought to bring the war to an end.
