The Captain from Connecticut is the definitive biography of the man who became a national hero as the commander of the USS
Constitution in her dramatic victory over HMS
Guerriere in the War of 1812. While Isaac Hull’s outstanding seamanship was in evidence throughout his career, Maloney makes the case that it is ironic that he is remembered for his tactical prowess in this famous naval battle, because he was actually the most pacific of men.
