Book Information

"In Peace and War draws on research - including archival work and interviews with past and present-day administrators, alumni, and current midshipmen - to document the U.S. Merchant Marine Academy's evolution from its beginnings to the present." "In Peace and War conveys the educational experience at the Academy today, including the regiment of midshipmen and the required Sea Year, both of which distinguish Kings Point from almost all other educational institutions."--Jacket
