Read by Jonathan Reese.
From back cover:
"She was the most important prize ever taken by the American navy. Her capture from the British in the War of 1812 was proof of American daring and skill. She was His Majesty's frigate Macedonian, a tough, 1,300-ton gun platform.
She was a proud trophy - even if her timbers were inferior and her crew had nearly mutinied. As the U.S.S. Macedonian, her mere appearance in any port was a blunt reminder of America's growing strength in the age of fighting sail. She served in one adventure after another, including the war against the slave trade, the great Irish famine, and the Civil War."
