Sea Dog is the autobiography of Rear Admiral Yates Stirling, Jr. (1872¿1948), a long-serving sea officer noted for his controversial views on a variety of subjects, and his outspoken defense of them. His memoirs cover a broad swath of naval history from the late nineteenth century leading up to World War 2-the Philippine insurrection in which the United States was embroiled on the heels of the Spanish-American War; America's involvement in China between the World Wars; naval bureaucracy and politics; and mundane but fascinating matters such as target practice at sea. Sea Dog offers a unique perspective on key historical events and is a must-read for students of naval military history.
