  • “The Fewer the Men, the Greater the Honor”: the Naval Doctrine of Republicanism in the First Barbary War
    “THE FEWER THE MEN, THE GREATER THE HONOR”: THE NAVAL DOCTRINE OF REPUBLICANISM IN THE FIRST BARBARY WAR by PARKER BLAKE BEDNASEK Submitted to the Department of History of the University of Kansas in partial fulfillment of the requirements for departmental honors Approved by: _________________________ Name Dr. Marie Brown _________________________ Name CDR. Joseph Cooper _________________________ Name Dr. Sheyda Jahanbani _________________________ Date Defended Abstract The First Barbary War was a naval conflict fought between the United States and Tripoli from 1801-1805 over the payment of “tribute” to Tripoli so they would not seize American merchant ships. The Jefferson Administration believed that the war would not take more than a few months but it ended up lasting a desultory four years. There were two main theoretical concepts that impacted the war – the idea of the proper role and size of a republican military power and the internal struggle of the U.S. Navy for professionalism and leadership. These two concepts influenced the development of the naval doctrine of republicanism for the U.S. Navy which can be characterized by limited size, firm, yet humane leadership, and aggressiveness toward the enemy. This doctrine is best exemplified by Commodore Edward Preble’s who had a great impact on the young naval officers who fought under him and who would come to lead the U.S. Navy for years afterwards. 1 Introduction Our exasperating experiences with the Barbary States of northern Africa, continuing for a generation after the United States had won its independence, constitute an interesting chapter of American history and one from which we may derive permanently valuable lessons.

  • CORIOLIS Volume 6, Number 1, 2016 Page 1 America's Unwitting Pirate
    America’s Unwitting Pirate: The Adventures and Misfortunes of a Continental Navy Captain Louis Arthur Norton Introduction After the onset of the American Revolutionary War, Patriot leaders realized that an American maritime harassment of British commercial shipping close-to-home and British seaside communities was likely to produce shock — if not awe. This "asymmetric” battle strategy, sometimes-called irregular warfare, uses unconventional tactics to exploit the vulnerabilities of the stronger opponent. Several Continental Navy captains were adept at attacking the British near their coastal waters. The most celebrated and skillful self-promoter was John Paul Jones. His exploits as Captain of Ranger and Bonhomme Richard earned him the title of “pirate” in the eyes of the His Majesty’s government. Lambert Wickes was also successfully operated close to the British Isles, but unfortunately Wickes, along with his ship Reprisal, was lost at sea in September 1777. Since this tragedy occurred relatively early in the war away from American shores, his fame ebbed like an outgoing Atlantic tide. A third captain, Gustavus Conyngham, also engaged in this asymmetric naval warfare and was credited with 31 ships apprehended, but suffered multiple physical and financial misfortunes.

John Paul Jones was born 'John Paul' in 1747, on the estate of Arbigland in the Stewartry of Kirkcudbright on the southern coast of Scotland. John Paul's father was a gardener at Arbigland, and his mother was a member of Clan MacDuff. John Paul adopted the alias 'John Jones' when he fled to his brother's home in Fredericksburg, Virginia in 1773 to avoid the hangman's noose in Tobago after an incident when he was accused of murdering a sailor under his command. He began using the name 'John Paul Jones', at the suggestion of his brother. Although his naval career never saw him above the rank of Captain in the Continental Navy after his victory over the Serapis with the frigate Bonhomme Richard, John Paul Jones remains the first genuine American Naval hero, as well as a highly regarded battle commander.

In military history none of these concepts are new. Much of the recent scholarship and writing on these forms of warfare has focused on to- day’s operations ashore, particularly in Iraq and Afghanistan. However, there are significant implications for naval warfare as well. The leaders of the sea services stated in the “Cooperative Strategy for 21st Century Seapower”that “preventing wars is as important as winning wars.”1 IftheU.S.Navyisgoingtoembracethis belief as it sails deeper into the twenty-first century, development of naval irreg- ular warfare will become vital to its future success and relevance.
