2014.580.3073"Commodore Preble."
  • Publication, Newspaper
  • People
"A significant article by Colonel Bigelow in last Sunday's Telegram retold the story of Maine's famous Commodore Preble whom we have too slightly honored. No more distinguished name than his graces our history, for it was he who father the United States Navy and set those high standards of discipline and gallantry for which it is and has been famous. When one hears of "fighting spirit", one associates the phrase with the old Commodore who was a blazing figure in the earlier days of our national existence. Col. Bigelow finds that this fighting spirit was the keynote of the Preble character and that it was of inestimable importance in the war of 1812 when the Navy alone preserved the independence of the feeble Nation.
