En savoir plus sur le livre
The Stewards of West River is the story of a Norman's Retreat, a Maryland shipyard that served as the base for America's Navy during the revolutionary war. The story starts with John Steward. He was the first shipwright of the Steward family. When he died, his son Stephen Steward found his own site on the West River and built his own shipyard that operated from 1752 to 1792. Stephen designed and built warships for the Maryland Navy and Congress. The story of his shipyard is associated with the many services he provided for the Maryland Council of Safety. Norman's Retreat Shipyard is still around today, and the story of the Steward family is a classic American tale of perseverance in the face of ultimate odds.
