Turner Publishing announces the new release the Historic Photos of United States Naval Academy by James Cheevers. This 10x10 volume showcases the stunning pictorial narrative of the US Naval Academy in black-and-white culled-from-the-archives images.
Nashville, TN, June 12, 2008 --(PR.com)-- Located in Annapolis, Maryland, the US Naval Academy reflects a progressive and hearty spirit, educating the hardworking officers in the United States Navy and Marine Corps.
With fact-filled photo captions and chapter introductions by James Cheevers, Historic Photos of United States Naval Academy rediscovers the Academy’s fascinating past through nearly 200 rare photographs culled from the U.S. Naval Academy Archives; U.S. Naval Academy Photography Laboratory; U.S. Naval Academy Museum; U.S. Navy Photograph Center, Anacostia, DC; Navy Photograph Bureau of Aeronautics; National Portrait Gallery, Smithsonian Institute, Washington, DC; and the Library of Congress, showcased with exceptional clarity and beauty.
From the Class of 1861 and 1905 to Bancroft Hall and the USS Delaware, the United States Naval Academy shines through the decades in glorious black-and-white photography, displayed in a large format. This is a great book for any history, military, or travel fan.
“So much of our architecture here at the Naval Academy has been lost to expansion and progress that old photographs are essential to knowing what the place was like when Admiral Dewey or Dr. Albert A. Michelson as a student. Photography has provided a record of the people, faculty, staff, and midshipmen, of their abodes and work sites, and of the events in classrooms and in laboratories and on athletic and parade fields,” says author Cheevers.
Historic Photos of United States Naval Academy is part of Turner Publishing’s Historic Photos series. These books, highlighting the history of the great cities, pivotal events, and legendary figures and institutions across America, have been acclaimed as a staple in the collection of anyone who loves history.
